I turn complex data into clear, reliable answers, from genomes to rivers and power grids.
I'm a bioinformatician and data scientist who works end to end: from the experiments that generate the data (NGS assay development, qPCR, in vivo studies, microtomy) to the Python, R and SQL pipelines that clean, analyse and model it, and the charts and write-ups that explain it to scientists and non-specialists alike. I'm currently completing my MSc at University College Cork, with a thesis at IBIMA Plataforma BIONAND in Málaga integrating microbiome and metabolomics data from bariatric surgery patients. I've also applied the same skills to public data: a CDISC clinical trial taken from raw data to safety tables with independent double-programming QC, how airway cells respond to H7N9 compared with three other flu strains, the banana DNA-damage gene I cloned at NABI followed across 17 plant genomes, why 40,124 clinical trials stop early and which ones are at risk, a 7-day early warning for river low flows, day-ahead forecasts of Ireland's electricity demand, how much wind the all-island grid turns away when demand is low, checked against EirGrid's own figures, 2040 plans for Cork's and Dublin's electricity grids with interactive substation maps, who Cork's planned commuter rail stations would reach, a Census 2022 study of health and deprivation across 3,420 communities, a monthly unemployment outlook, a weekly KPI toolkit for a discount supermarket chain, and a propensity-versus-uplift study of who a subscriber campaign should contact.

My name, written in DNA
Each letter is 8 bits of ASCII, and every 2 bits become one base: 00 = A, 01 = C, 10 = G, 11 = T. Hover a letter to find its four bases.
