I currently work as a Software Engineer (Curriculum) in Machine Learning/GenAI/Python @ SkillerWhale
Previously I completed my PhD in Robotics and Autonomous Systems at the University of Edinburgh within the Institute of Perception, Action and Behavior.
I am interested in Machine Learning, Control Theory and Optimization and specifically applying them directly to hardware. I was also affiliated with the MEMMO project (http://memmo-project.eu).
I did my undergrad at Edinburgh doing Computer Science and Electronics with a major focus on Machine Learning in the final two years. My bachelor's thesis was in Approximate Bayesian Computation under Dr. Michael Gutmann.
Previously I worked at Drooble, a social network for musicians as a backend/front-end developer. I also did an internship at Amazon in Edinburgh, doing Causal Inference models over their retail datasets.
Once upon a time I was really interested in video games and writing in-browser ones without using flash. I have a small collection of Doodles hosted on github. These are mostly HTML5 algorithmic and graphics demos with a few games.
During my first year at UoE, there was a competition to design a fractal generator. Thus I wrote one in Haskell. It generates Mandelbrot and Julia sets and can be parameterized.
