I’m currently a Lecturer in Predictive Analytics at the University of Edinburgh Business School.

Fellow of Royal Statistical Society, Royal Statistical Society Young Statisticians Section Committee Member.

Member of Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (MIMA)

Member of International Statistical Institute.

Before joining Edinburgh, I was a Lecturer in Computer Science at the University of Exeter. In the previous, I worked as a research fellow in the Department of Informatics, University of Sussex (UK) during the period 2017 - 2019, and as a postdoc in the Department of Computer Science, University of Exeter (UK) during the period 2019 - 2020.

My research interests focus on probabilistic machine modelling and non-parametric Bayesian predictive methods such as Gaussian Process and Student-t Process modelling. As their applications, I also have expertise in time series prediction, financial data analysis, algorithmic fairness, and human mobility.
