Biography

I am a Research Software Engineer (RSE) in the Digital Innovation Team.

 
Prior to joining BAS in February 2024, I worked as an Environmental Data Scientist and as a Spatial Data Analyst at the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH). I developed tools and processes for the automated processing and quality assurance of air quality and climate change datasets, mostly written in R. I was also part of the Informatics Liaison Network and the Environmental Information Data Centre, where I promoted best practices in data stewardship and helped researchers make their data or software Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR).

Before joining UKCEH I graduated with a BSc in Ecological & Environmental Sciences from the University of Edinburgh. I wrote my dissertation on vegetation change impact on Arctic land-atmosphere interactions and snowmelt, using a Weather Research and Forecasting model.
