I am a computational scientist with the Department of Meteorology, University of Reading, Computational Modelling Services and part of the UKESM Core Group and an NCAS member. I am also an ESMValTool Core developer https://github.com/ESMValGroup/ESMValTool/ ; I am a former member of LIGO (Laser Interferometry Gravitational Waves Observatory) Scientific Collaboration, and have been a gravitational waves data scientist since 2008. I obtained my PhD in gravitational waves data analysis in 2012 and have had various research posts since. My interests range from data analysis, computational science to modern military history and photography.
