Summary

For the past 8 years I have predominantly used Python for the generation of custom data pipelines and analysis algorithms for biological science discovery.

Currently, my remit is within population genetics which incorporates many different dataset types which are often terabytes in size. I am also well versed in R, Git, Linux and Bash.

I enjoy creating novel algorithms but also optimising existing or legacy code.
