About me

I am a Staff Research Engineer at DeepMind and a PhD student at UCL. Previously I was a Software Engineer at Google Zurich working on NLP using neural networks.

Education

I am a second year PhD student at UCL. I finsihed my 4 year Computing MEng degree from Imperial College London in 2014, with first honours and a prize of excellence for an outstanding overall performance.

Professional Interests

Generative models, reinforcement learning, natural language processing, scalable and safe machine learning.
More broadly, I am interested in anything related to learning probability distributions.
