About Me
I'm a fourth-year student studying MEng Computing (with AI and ML) at Imperial College London. I'm currently on track to receive a high first, having landed on the Dean's list in second and third year with an overall third-year percentage of 85.5%.
Currently I'm working on my Final Year Project: Generating Kidney Tissue Images Using Diffusion Models Conditioned on Clinical Parameters, which involves synthesising images of kidney biopsies, facilitating the explainability of measurements taken by doctors, and allowing privacy-preserving synthetic datasets to be publicly released.
Experimenting with programming and music is a big interest of mine, the best example being osci-renderosci-render; a way of visualising 3D objects on an oscilloscope using audio.

osci-render
Cross-platform, open-source software used by 100s of music + visual artists for making music by drawing images on an oscilloscope using audio.
Can render 3D objects, images, and text on an oscilloscope.
Designed to be extensible, allowing artists to synthesize their own audio + visuals with Lua.
Also created osci-sample, a way of sharing and visualising sounds made with osci-render.

Other Projects
WACC
We created a compiler using Scala for a simple language called WACC, a Turing-complete variant on the While family of languages.
We also added extensions including:
- 'Mark and Sweep' garbage collector
- Re-implementation of Snake AI in WACC
Pintos
Various features were built upon a bare-bones operating system in C called Pintos, including:
- Running and loading user programs
- Advanced thread scheduling
- Virtual memory
- Memory mapped files
Experience
Forward Deployed Software Engineer
Palantir • Internship
Mar 2022 - Sep 2022
Palantir build world-class software for data analytics and data-driven decision making.
My work was client-facing, and I worked with a small team to develop the UK government's Homes
for Ukraine platform, which has helped ensure over 100,000 Ukraine refugees are safely resettled in
the UK.
Some of what I worked on includes using TypeScript to develop an Entity Resolution tool for local
authorities to correct and merge duplicate records.
I also worked heavily on data pipelining and transformation, using Apache Spark and Python.
This involves integrating complex datasets from multiple sources, and unifying them with existing
data.
Whilst my TypeScript and PySpark skills were used heavily, this internship gave me lots of experience
with client-facing work.
I was regularly in meetings with external stakeholders and clients, and was able to develop my
communication skills, and had the opportunity to demo my work to the client.
Computer Scientist
Netcraft • Internship
Jun 2020 - Sep 2020
Jul 2021 - Sep 2021
Netcraft specialises in finding and taking down websites that impersonate other companies. They
currently perform takedowns for three of the ten most phished companies on the internet.
Perl was the language I used the most, along with JavaScript, MySQL, PHP, and other
technologies
such as Puppet.
In 2020, I worked as part of a research team, and uncovered new scams and phishing sites including
Microsoft
support call and gift card scams.
In 2021, I automatically detected and took down telephone scams, spoke to customers
about newly discovered covid scams, and worked on sales for web scams to
companies worth over $400B.
Regex and Bash were skills that were heavily developed throughout my time at Netcraft; Regex is used
all over Netcraft for classifying malicious sites.
My communicative and documenting skills were exercised when writing technical reports about
the programs I have been writing and their purpose.
IT Developer
thirtyone:eight • Part-time
Aug 2016 - Oct 2019
thirtyone:eight is a charity that specialises in introducing child-protection policies in churches
and offering DBS checks to many UK dioceses.
I worked as part of the IT department; tooling using C#, managing databases using MySQL,
maintaining IT systems using Azure, and fixing staff PCs.
The redevelopment of the company website was my largest project; spanning over multiple months,
working with multiple developers, and closely communicating with the marketing department.
I heavily used JavaScript, CSS, and HTML, and worked with multiple web frameworks, including
Angular and Vue.
Another large project I undertook was the development of a hardware auditing program that gathered
information about staff PCs.
Once the data is gathered, it is sent via JSON to a server program that inserts the data into
the company database. This required heavy knowledge of Azure, C#, and .NET Entity Framework.
