About

I am a condensed matter theorist at The University of Queensland in the group of Prof. Ben Powell. Throughout my career my drive has been to systematically understand the properties of molecules, both in isolation and in solid (crystal) form. My ultimate aim is the theoretical design of strongly correlated electron materials from the ground up. I have pioneered the use of first principles spin-orbit coupling parameter computation, using relativistic Wannier spinor methods to construct effective low-energy Hamiltonians for organic molecular crystals and describe their unique strongly correlated physics. To learn more, see my recent publications, particularly “Spin-orbit coupling in Mo3S7(dmit)3”.
