Computer science grad building things that explain themselves: machine learning models you can interact with, black holes you can spectate, and quantum algorithms that mostly behave.

about me

I started university at sixteen on a scholarship to Birmingham, published my first paper the same year, and wrote my dissertation on hybrid quantum–classical optimisation. I've since done an MSc in Advanced Computing (AI) at Durham, and from November I'm a software engineer.

The common thread: I like making hard ideas feel touchable.
