Reading, United Kingdom

At ECMWF I have a number of roles as a Computational Scientist in the Computing Department:- Developing a version of the NEMO ocean model that uses single-precision floating-point arithmetic. This will aid in ECMWF's efforts to run high-resolution Earth-System models for weather prediction.- Investigating the applications of the Modular Supercomputing.

Kobe, Japan

I conducted data assimilation research as an intern in the Data Assimilation Research Team of the RIKEN Centre for Computational Science, supervised by Drs Takemasa Miyoshi and Keiichi Kondo. I was funded by the JSPS Summer Program.

Bristol

I worked on all aspects of the back-end and front-end of SmartSign, a two-factor authentication system for securing web logins. I used a wide variety of web technologies, including HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript, Ruby on Rails and.NET.

I worked at the Surrey Space Centre to develop a Cherenkov radiation detector. I learned how to prototype basic electronic circuits and developed MATLAB scripts for processing radiation belt readings from geostationary satellites.

I developed MATLAB scripts for processing gravimeter data, in order to explore caves remotely.
