Originally from Sheffield, Eve studied mathematics as an undergraduate and Part III student at Murray Edwards College, Cambridge, before moving home to the University of Sheffield for PhD studies in combinatorics and algebraic geometry. 

She is currently a lecturer at Birkbeck, University of London and will take up a position as an Assistant Teaching Professor at Pennsylvania State University in the new academic year.

She has been a maths admissions interviewer Cambridge since 2018, an undergraduate supervisor since 2019, and a senior examiner for STEP since 2021. She has given some talks accessible to school students for the UKMT.

Eve founded this summer school in her third year at Murray Edwards and has directed it since. As well as planning the school and working as a tutor, Eve leads the mathematical writing seminars and combinatorics sessions.

Originally from Sheffield, Arij studied mathematics as an undergraduate at Murray Edwards College, Cambridge before moving to the University of Bristol for PhD studies in fluid dynamics and mechanical engineering. 

Arij was a student at the summer school when it first ran in 2018, was a TA in 2019 and 2021, and has been a full member of the teaching staff since 2022. 

She is passionate about and involved in lots of outreach and widening participation, and teaches undergraduate mathematics to mathematicians and engineers at Bristol.  

In her spare time, she enjoys football and playing guitar.

Originally from Hastings, Hannah is a first-year undergraduate student studying mathematics at Murray Edwards College, Cambridge. Hannah was a student at the summer school in 2021, and first worked as a tutor on the 2023 summer school.

On her year between completing sixth form and beginning her degree, to all intents and purposes she worked as an A Level maths teacher at her old school.

Hannah is pictured here with her cat Gizmo.

James did his undergraduate through PhD studies at Trinity College, Cambridge. He has been involved in outreach since he was a student, including working on the STEP study school in Cambridge before it became the STEP Support Programme.

He is now the Admissions and Outreach Co-ordinator for maths at Oxford and runs the Oxford Online Maths Club. He is broadly responsible for making sure that the Mathematics Admissions Test (MAT) gets set and marked each year. He also runs tutorials (small group teaching) for a variety of courses with a slant towards applied maths at New College, Oxford. He is interested in ways in which Oxford can do more to represent the wider UK population.

James gave one of the lectures at the 2023 school, and is returning this year as a tutor.

Originally from Rotherham, Will studied maths at undergraduate and masters level at the University of Sheffield before moving to the University of Cambridge for PhD studies in fluid dynamics, magnetohydrodynamics and applications in solar / astrophysics. 

He has marked STEP since 2021, and became a senior examiner for STEP in 2023. He has been a supervisor for first-year undergraduate courses since the start of his PhD studies.

This will be his first year teaching on the summer school.

As well as teaching workshops and supervisions, Will will lead the mechanics sessions.

Originally from Colchester, Joanna studied maths as an undergraduate at Queens' College, Cambridge, where she developed an interest in fluid mechanics and went into PhD studies on the physics of granular flows and avalanches. Combining a mathematical background with a longstanding interest in music and acoustics, Joanna now works as a software engineer, developing audio technology for augmented reality applications.

Joanna has supervised undergraduate students in applied maths and theoretical physics since 2015, as well as STEP and MAT. Joanna is passionate about outreach in science and technology, and is organizer for the Cambridge chapter of codebar, a charity that runs free programming workshops. She maintains a set of notes and demos on mechanics, scientific computing, random processes, and other topics.

In her spare time she sings and studies early English music, and is learning Italian.

Originally from New York, Beth completed her undergraduate degree at Wellesley College, majoring in English and mathematics.  She moved to Boston College for PhD studies in representation theory and number theory. Then, she moved to Cambridge, to work as a teaching associate at Gonville and Caius College and later as a postdoctoral researcher, fellow and tutor at Murray Edwards College. She then took up a junior research fellowship at Somerville College Oxford before finally accepting a lectureship at King's College London. 

Beth is passionate about teaching and outreach, and has experience of both the Oxford and Cambridge admissions processes as an interviewer.  She has also taught undergraduate maths at Cambridge, Oxford, and King's as a supervisor and lecturer for courses for first years through master's students. 

Beth will be delivering one of the enrichment talks.

Originally from Brazil, Luciano completed his undergraduate degree and masters at the Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio) in Electrical Engineering. He moved to London in 1993 for his PhD studies in image processing at Imperial College.

He has been in the Department of Mathematics at UCL since 2008 where he is currently the Admissions Tutor. He is passionate about promoting mathematics to young people and making mathematics a more inclusive space. In 2020 he co-founded the LGBTQ+STEM @UCL Network.

Luciano will speak and be able to answer student questions during the admissions session.

Kasia did her undergraduate through PhD studies in mathematics, specialising fluid dynamics and the modelling of glaciers, at Trinity College, Cambridge before moving to Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, USA for postdoctoral studies. She will be returning to Cambridge as a Junior Research Fellow in September.

Throughout her PhD studies, she supervised a variety of undergraduate courses.

Kasia is heavily involved in Olympiads in the UK, including having served as the Team Leader for the European Girl's Maths Olympiad. 

In her spare time she enjoys playing ultimate frisbee.

Kasia was a tutor on the 2021 school, and will return this year to give one of the enrichment talks.
