Welcome to my portfolio!
🎓 I am a DPhil student in Medical Science at the University of Oxford, based at the MRC WIMM Centre for Computational Biology, having previously worked as a Computational Biologist and then a Junior ML Engineer at Nucleome Therapeutics and completed my MRes in Bioinformatics and Theoretical Systems Biology at Imperial College London.
🧬 My primary research interests are in the applications of machine learning to multi-omics anlaysis and gene expression regulation.
🏢 Having developed a research portfolio across my BSc in Biochemistry, my MRes in Bioinformatics and a year in industry, I now apply that biological foundation and computational skillset to AI architectures for 3D genetics.
💼 Alongside my research I work in early-stage venture capital. I am President of the Oxford Venture Capital Network, an investor at Proximo Ventures and an angel investor in Assuric, and a venture scout for Ellipsis, which backs AI-native companies at pre-seed and seed. I was previously a research intern at Vela Partners, where my work applied quant-finance backtesting discipline to venture signals. More on the Venture Capital page.
