Profile

I received my Bachelor of Science degrees from the University of Malawi in 2014, where I majored in Mathematics and Statistics. I obtained Masters in Mathematics from the Jiangsu University, People's Republic of China in June 2019. My main research interests is in Applied Mathematics specifically Complex Network Control. My Master thesis, titled "Some Novel Controls Schemes for Delayed Multi-Agent Systems" explored the control of nonlinear time-delayed multi-agents with time-varying coupling. The work further looked at possibility of controlling delayed multi-agent system in a multiplex networks. Currently, I am working on mathematical modelling and control of underwater robot and autonomous vehicle systems.
