Mathematician with eleven years in research and applied mathematics, working in academia and then in a research lab in Singapore. Works where deep theory meets hard real-world problems — proving results, building mathematical models, and turning abstract methods into algorithms that solve concrete problems in optimisation, data and risk. Published peer-reviewed research and developed models now used in industry applications. Conducts mathematical research, develops models and algorithms, proves and verifies results, collaborates across disciplines, and publishes and presents findings. Rigorous, creative and deeply analytical. Looking for a research-mathematician or applied-maths role with a university, lab or company tackling genuinely hard quantitative problems.

Research Mathematician January 2018 to Present

Work where deep theory meets hard real-world problems in optimisation, data and risk modelling.
Published peer-reviewed research and developed mathematical models that are now used in real industry applications.
Conduct mathematical research, attacking open problems with rigour and finding results others can build on.
Develop models and algorithms that turn abstract methods into tools solving concrete, practical problems.
Prove and verify results carefully, making sure conclusions are genuinely correct, not just plausible.
Collaborate across disciplines and publish findings, bringing mathematical rigour to wider research problems.
University Mathematics Department

Postdoctoral Researcher July 2015 to December 2017

Conducted mathematical research and published papers in an academic department after the PhD.
Developed theory and collaborated with researchers, deepening expertise across more than two years.
Learned to lead research, publish and present at the highest academic level during this role.
Gained the strong research record that led into an applied research-mathematician position of my own.
Education
National University of Singapore

Doctorate — PhD in Mathematics (August 2011 to June 2015)

Doctorate in mathematics with research in optimisation and applied analysis, producing published results. The programme built the deep theoretical and research expertise advanced mathematical work requires, leading into a research career.
Tsinghua University

Bachelor — BSc in Mathematics (August 2007 to June 2011)

Degree in mathematics covering pure and applied maths, analysis, algebra and probability. The study built the rigorous foundation a mathematics career depends on. It set the path into doctoral research.
Highlights
Models used in industry
Developed mathematical models and algorithms now used in real industry applications. Turning abstract mathematics into tools that solve concrete problems is exactly where applied mathematics proves its practical worth.
Published research
Produced a body of published, peer-reviewed research that advanced his field. Peer-reviewed publication is the rigorous benchmark of original mathematical contribution, and building a record of it marks a genuine researcher.
Applied Modelling Project
Risk Optimisation Model

Research Mathematician (January 2021 to December 2021)

Developed a mathematical optimisation model for a real risk-management problem, from the underlying theory through to a working algorithm, which was adopted into an industry application and is in active use.
Research
Peer-Reviewed Research in Optimisation

International Journals (January 2016 to Present)

Research Collaborators

Published peer-reviewed papers in optimisation and applied analysis, contributing new results and methods that other researchers and practitioners have gone on to build upon in their own work.
Activities & Interests
Ice Hockey
Holidays
Dating
Baking
Weight Lifting
