Ymchwil
My research involves developing and improving software in support of gravitational physics research, including
- software development (mainly Python, C, and C++)
- software packaging and distribution (RPM, Deb, Conda, Pip, ...)
- optimisation
- batch software workflows with HTCondor
Bywgraffiad
I completed a PhD here in Cardiff in 2013, working under Dr (now Prof) Steve Fairhurst on gravitational-wave data analysis methods.
I then moved to Louisiana State University and worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher for the 'LIGO Data Grid', providing software support for the LIGO gravitational-wave detectors. During this time I was moslty in residence at the LIGO Livingston Observatory.
I returned to Cardiff in 2017 as a Sêr Cymru Research Fellow, working on research software in the Cardiff Gravity Exploration Institute.
In 2020 I briefly took on a role as a Research Software Engineer as part of the Supercomputing Wales project, before moving into my current role as a Senior Research Software Engineer.
