I am lecturer in Mathematics at NUI Galway. My research
interests are mostly concerned the analysis of numerical schemes for
differential equations.
I teach courses in Mathematics at all undergraduate and postgraduate
levels; many of these courses have an emphasis on computational
mathematics
During the current academic year, by administrative responsibilities
include (the rather pleasant task of) co-organising our
mathematics
seminars.
More details on all this below.

Research
My area of research is Numerical Analysis. I am particularly interested
in the design and analysis of numerical methods for singularly perturbed
differential equations, and in the application of novel methods in
numerical modelling. For more details, see
my research page.
