I am a research software engineer working in computational chemistry at the University of Edinburgh on problems related to computer aided drug design. My professional training consists of a PhD in statistical physics from the University of Nottingham and postdoctoral experience at the department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the Freie Universität Berlin, where I have been working on problems such as dimensionality reduction of large datasets from biomolecular simulations and developing software to help with simulation and analysis of complex biological processes such as ligand and protein binding. In my spare time I work as a freelancer for the mathematics communication project IMAGINARY (www.imaginary.org) as a project manager, organising exhibitions and workshop on various mathematics topics around the world with a primary focus on the African continent.
