Biography

I’m a PhD Student in the School of Earth and Environment at the University of Leeds and I am part of the SENSE centre for doctoral training. I am also the co-founder of SatSchool which is an Earth Observation based outreach programme aimed at 11-15 year olds. In my spare time I enjoy being outside either cycling, climbing or walking.

Research

My research focuses on using satellite data, such as TROPOMI and GHGSat, and modelling to investigate changes in atmospheric methane. I am currently developing a nested grid model for the chemical transport model TOMCAT to facilitate high resolution comparisons with TROPOMI methane observations.
