About

I’m a data scientist and quant developer with a PhD in applied mathematics from Cambridge and a background spanning data science, quantitative analytics, and high-performance computing. My work has ranged from large-scale data processing and statistical modeling to performance optimization for complex systems. Currently, I focus on big data analysis, data-driven decision-making, and agentic AI applications, while continuing to refine my expertise in concurrent programming and parallel computation. I enjoy combining deep mathematical insights with hands-on programming to develop efficient, scalable solutions. I bring a mix of analytical rigor, coding proficiency, and problem-solving ability, with experience working across finance, technology, and industry applications. I'm always keen to tackle new challenges where technical depth and innovative thinking make a tangible impact.
