AS/A2 and STEP mathematics tuition. Prior to this, I volunteered at a local 6th form college (under the STIMULUS scheme) and helped people who were retaking maths GCSE. Well over 100 hours of tuition experience at this level.From 2015-16 onwards, I have acted as an instructor for the undergraduate courses 'number theory', 'number fields' and 'algebraic geometry', all of which are taken by third-years at Cambridge University.During my PhD I taught various courses at University and King's College London, including financial mathematics, statistical inference, analysis and algebra.

London, United Kingdom

Statistical research project in collaboration with Siemens, aiming to predict failure in gas turbine engines. After cleaning the dataset, I implemented lasso regression and random forest in order to find features which betray failure. In future work, we hope to use these features in a survival model.

London, United Kingdom

Used the ‘R’ programming language to process and understand a large amount of transactionaldata provided by the bank. We used a Machine-Learning approach, applying methodssuch as the random forest and gradient boosting, to make predictions about what LBBW’scustomers might do in the future.

Exeter, United Kingdom

Research project with the aim of improving existing mathematical methods for data assimilation. Most of my day is spent reading academic papers, writing computer code, and doing numerical experiments.

Winchester

An 8-week internship in the area of actuarial consultancy. I worked within the pensions team, whose purpose is to provide advice to a client company on how they should manage their pensions scheme.
