Hello there!

I'm Nicholas, a final-year PhD (DPhil) student in Computer Science at the University of Oxford, supervised by Edith Elkind. I'm broadly interested in algorithmic game theory, mechanism design, and computational social choice.

I completed my undergraduate degrees in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at the National University of Singapore (2017 - 2021), where I worked with Yair Zick, Jonathan Scarlett and Harold Soh.

I've also done research visits to
