I’m an autistic Data Science consultant who honed her skills during her PhD at the Observatoire de Genève in Switzerland until June 2019. I specialised in working with light curves from space-based telescopes : I am a well-respected expert in the study of starspot photometric signatures; and have extensive experience in exoplanet detection and characterisation .
Before turning to Data Science, I wrote 3 first-author publications and contributed to 16 others, and have a h-index of 15. I’ve also refereed for AAS Journals, MNRAS and OPTICON proposals. I have consulted on four children’s non-fiction books on space and astronomy for Arcturus Publishing .
During my PhD I was interviewed by the media about exciting new research developments, and have since spoken about my experiences of being autistic on YouTube channels and podcasts .
You can find details of my research and experience on my Research pages, view my CV and can contact me with the Contact Form.
I also have a Blog where I plan to ramble on about my life and experiences!
