🚀 I’m currently co-founder and CTO at Gradient Labs, which was founded in London in 2023.

🏦 I previously spent five+ years building the machine learning discipline, platform, and use cases at Monzo Bank in London. I held various titles along the way, from Data Scientist through to Director of Machine Learning and Staff Machine Learning Engineer; I reviewed this journey in 2020, 2021, 2022 and also wrote about Monzo’s machine learning platform.

✈️ Before joining Monzo, I was a Senior Data Scientist at Skyscanner, where I built recommender and ranking systems to improve travel information in the app.

🏫 Before Skyscanner, I was a Senior Research Associate in the Computer Lab at the University of Cambridge, working on healthcare mobile apps that use smartphone sensors. I spun out this research into a startup that was part of Accelerate Cambridge in the Judge Business School. You can read more about my research.

🎓 I did an MSci in Computer Science, PhD on recommmender systems, and first postdoctoral research position on urban data science in the Department of Computer Science at University College London, where I am still an Honorary Research Associate. While at UCL, I also spent time as a visiting researcher at Telefonica Research, Barcelona and worked as a Data Science consultant.
