I was born in Nottingham, England while "Living Doll" performed by Cliff Richard and The Young Ones was number one on the UK Singles Chart. In spite of this, after eighteen years of living in Nottingham I moved to London to begin an undergraduate degree in Physics at Imperial College London, followed by a PhD in Physics at University College London. My PhD supervisor was Dan Browne in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, and my thesis was on the connections between quantum non-locality and measurement-based quantum computation.
After a short stint as a research assistant in the Department of Computer Science in Oxford in the Quantum Group, I moved to Barcelona to work as a postdoctoral researcher at ICFO-Institute of Photonic Sciences, in the group of Antonio Acín. After two years in Catalonia, I moved back to the Quantum Group in Oxford to work with Jonathan Barrett. After working in the group of Elham Kashefi (School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh) as part of the Networked Quantum Information Technologies (NQIT) Hub, I am now in the Department of Physics at the University of Oxford, in the group of Prof. Ian Walmsley.
