I am a lecturer at Macquarie University. Prior to joining this department in February 2004, I was a visiting lecturer at the University of Surrey (U.K.), and before that a lecturer at the University of Warwick (U.K.). In 2001, I finished a doctorate under the supervision of Tudor Ratiu at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. My main research area is geometric mechanics, a field in which one uses modern differential geometry to study classical mechanical problems.
