Physicist and Data Scientist | Expert in Numerical Modelling, Statistical Analysis, and Oceanographic Research

Profile Summary

I am a seasoned Physicist and Data Scientist with a robust background in numerical modelling, statistical analysis, and geophysical research. I hold a DPhil in Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Planetary Physics from the University of Oxford and have extensive experience in applying advanced mathematical techniques to complex scientific problems. My expertise spans across various domains including fluid dynamics, ensemble modelling, and machine learning, with a specific focus on applications in oceanography and climate science. I have a proven track record of developing and implementing innovative solutions in both academic and industry settings, including my recent work on open-source machine learning projects in ocean acoustics at OceanStream. In addition to my technical skills, which include proficiency in Python, MATLAB, Mathematica, and SQL, I bring strong analytical capabilities and a keen understanding of statistical physics, information theory, and time series analysis. My experience also includes teaching and mentoring, having provided over 300 hours of instruction at the University of Oxford and ITECH, Ecully. I am fluent in English and Welsh, with an upper-intermediate proficiency in French, and am open to collaborations and consulting opportunities that leverage my skills in data science, numerical modelling, and scientific research.
