Profile

I completed my BSc at De Montfort University in 2021 with first class in Computing, and then moved to The University of Leicester for my MSc in Cloud Computing, which I completed in 2022. My MSc project was the backbone of my PhD application, and was awarded the Best Technical MSc project award. I was also given the Best Student in Informatics award, both in November 2022.

In my research, I am actively trying to find a way to apply Graph Rewriting to Graph Neural Networks. I am funded by The University, working as a GTA. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or my supervisor, Prof. Reiko Heckel 😊

Research

Currently researching, as part of my PhD, whether it is possible to apply Graph Rewriting to Graph Neural Networks, and if so, to what extent.

My first publication was released on the 16th International Conference on Graph Transformation (part of STAF Conferences 2023). It is available online as session 5 of ICGT 2023, second talk. 

If you are interested in the subject, please get in touch with me or my supervisor, Professor Reiko Heckel (rh122)!

Interests

I organise Tabletop Role-playing games in my free time, mainly in the 1920s setting in the USA (Call of Cthulhu), or other systems, including one that I actively develop myself. I spend lots of time writing scenarios and literature for and around them. I also review Polish Hip-Hop music. Programming-wise, I engage in Full-Stack Web Development, with core interest in PHP and JavaScript.

Qualifications

Certified Carbon Literate - 2024.
