As a software engineer, I participated in a diverse range of projects, from federated healthcare data analysis for the UK NHS logo to decentralized data networks for Web3.

As an open-source advocate, I support and contribute to multiple open-source projects such as RSSHub logo RSSHub.

As an academic researcher, I served as a co-investigator on multiple grants and was recognized as a Global Talent by the 🇬🇧 UK government in 2021.
