Caroline (she/her)

Caroline is a PhD student in the Statistical Applied Mathematics (SAMBa) CDT. She took a somewhat circuitous route to PhD study, originally obtaining a BA in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge, before completing an MSc in Applied Mathematics at the University of Birmingham (where her dissertation concerned the fluid dynamics of molten chocolate!), with spells working in a school in Germany, in educational publishing and in the Civil Service along the way. Attending PiWORKS seminars and other events promoted by Piscopia was instrumental in her decision to actually go ahead and apply for a PhD, so she’s excited to (try to) give something back! Away from maths, Caroline enjoys baking and board games.
