I completed my PhD within the Signal Processing Group at the University of Cambridge (Fitzwilliam College) supervised by Arnaud Doucet, as part of the (world famous) STELLA research group.  I am currently working at QinetiQ Malvern alongside Simon Maskell. I was extremely fortunate to hold an Industrial Fellowship Award from the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851. My research interests include methodological enhancements in Sequential Monte Carlo with applications in multi-target tracking. My publications can be found here.
