Hello! I'm a software engineer, astrophysicist, and former Earth observation data scientist. I used to be part of the Research School of Astronomy at the Australian National University, and the Foundations and Methods of Machine Learning group at Data61/CSIRO. I was also part of Radio Galaxy Zoo, a citizen science project which aimed to put eyes on a huge amount of the radio sky. I'm interested in applications of machine learning to wide-area surveys, both in the sky and on the ground.

This site is a bit of a work in progress, but so is everything, so that's okay.
