I’m interested in science, research, education, and technology.
In the research context, I’m particularly interested in computer programming, data analysis, visualisation, and reproducibility. My background is in research in the area of perception (vision and hearing; see my research) and in teaching perception and research skills (academic CV).
I am currently working as an independent consultant. If you might be interested in hiring me to assist with your research, educational, or technological requirements, please see the information about my consulting services for further details.
You can contact me by sending an email, interacting via Twitter, or instant messaging via Matrix.
Here are a few notes on what I’m listening to, reading, and thinking about.
Outside of work, I enjoy running and usually get out for a run a few times a week. I’ve run a few marathons in the past (slowly) but I’m not currently training for anything in particular—mostly trying to improve my parkrun (5 km) times.
