I’m a Simulations Engineer and Data Scientist with a PhD in Aerospace Engineering at the intersection of high-performance simulation, probabilistic modelling, and applied ML. I enjoy working on applied problems where theory meets implementation; my background spans agent-based modelling, Monte Carlo methods, operations research and spatiotemporal ML models. I have built out and deployed full web apps to productionise my research, so I am comfortable across the stack and have led teams in academia and industry doing similar.
I'm interested in roles where I can combine simulation and ML models and see their impact in the real world, whether that’s in aviation, robotics, logistics, or something I’ve never heard of before.
