“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.”
Theodore Roosevelt
Before joining the Statistics and Operational Research (STOR-i) CDT programme, I completed my MPhys Physics course at the University of Manchester. As part of my MPhys project, I worked on developing a dynamical rating system to rank footballers based on their duel performance. This was in collaboration with Manchester City Group (MCG), which gave me a chance to work on something with real-life application, and an insight into working with an industrial partner.
During my studies, I took part in the STOR-i internship where I worked on a time series analysis via Kalman filtering. Many of the topics that I learned about during the internship were something I had not encountered before. For that reason, I am looking forward to exploring these in depth this year before I decide what the focus of my PhD project will be.
In my free time, I enjoy climbing, running, baking, and learning languages.
