Sadie Manifold

With a strong academic background in applied mathematics and a particular interest in mathematical modelling, I have developed excellent analytical and problem-solving skills throughout my MMath degree at Cardiff University. Through advanced study in fluid dynamics and partial differential equations, I have gained experience in deriving and analysing physics-based models. My academic work, together with leadership roles and customer-facing employment, has strengthened my communication skills, resilience, and ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

I am particularly interested in computational physics, multiphysics simulation and their application to complex engineering systems.
