Profile Summary

Astrophysicist / mathematician / data scientist with years of experience in both an academic and commercial context. My research in Astrophysics focused on confronting our models of the Universe and its evolution until today with big datasets. My time in academia allowed me to refine my skills in research, data analysis, scientific computing, statistics and writing. Working in the commercial sector has given me insight into the array of interesting and challenging problems requiring creative thinking and innovation that reside outside of the realm of Science.
