I am an applied mathematician and research software developer, currently working as a research scientist in the Discrete Event Simulation Research Team at the RIKEN Center for Computational Science. I am also affiliated with the Mathematical Social Science Team at the RIKEN Center for Interdisciplinary Theoretical and Mathematical Sciences (iTHEMS).
Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Dynamics of Social Behavior research group. I earned my PhD from the School of Mathematics at Cardiff University.
My research focuses on applying game-theoretic modeling, agent based simulations, and data analysis to understand behavior in social dilemmas and various scientific fields.
Beyond my research, I actively contribute to open-source projects. I am a fellow of the Software Sustainability Institute and serve as a topic editor for the Journal of Open Source Software.
