Career
The University of Oxford
I studied for a BA in physics and graduated with an upper second class degree in 2018. I honed my problem solving capabilities in a wide range of practicle and theoretical subjects. In my final project I collaborated with researchers at the Diamond Light Source accelerator. I researched how to optimise the performance of evolutionary algorithms for deducing the optimal path of a beamline. This began my fascination with machine learning and software.
Homeflow (2019-2021)
Homeflow is a property tech company where I worked as a backend engineer in Ruby on Rails. I honed my software skills maintaining a large distributed microservice infastructure. I crafted a database API to be used by external clients including the largest estate agency group in the UK Connells.
Goldsmiths, University of London
I studied for an Msc in Virtual and Augmented Reality in 2023-2024 and achieved a distinction. I developed a range of cutting-edge projects spanning mixed reality, machine learning, and computer graphics. My final project used interactive machine learning to detect a language of user body gestures. Virtual Reality animals each responded uniquely to the gestures. This has inspired my ambition to explore human and machine interaction.
Seedrs X Republic (2021-)
Seedrs X Republic is a equity crowfunding and venture captial firm where I work as a fullstack engineer. I started as a platform engineer maintaining and building a large monolithic financial system. The platform handles sensitive operations involving client assets and money. Here, I built a first of its kind drawdowns investment product for venture capital fund Atomico.
I was promoted to the head of the regulations team. We were responsible for updating the platform to be compliant with new FCA regulations in a fixed timeframe. Furthermore we were in charge of satisfying EU regulations so the firm could expand into Europe.
