Projects

Java A-level CS Coursework

Procedurally-Generated Platformer with AI Boss

Designed a 2D platformer with a reactive enemy using reinforcement-learning-inspired exploration/exploitation. Levels generated via Perlin noise, then layered with recursive generation to produce natural, playable layouts.

Java Stochastic probability Advanced Scientific Model Recursion Advanced OOP Game Devlopment
Python NatMatSci AI Summer School

Bigram Language Model

Developed a Markov-chain bigram model for text generation at GFF AI Summer School. Analysed the performance limits of probabilistic language models at scale — understanding where statistics meets intelligence.

Student-Focused GPT Wrapper

Built a lightweight AI tool providing exam-board-specific responses. Designed prompt structure and memory constraints to explore how model context affects output quality — prompting as an engineering problem.

Minecraft Redstone

Arithmetic Logic Unit

Designed and built a fully functional ALU with accumulator inside Minecraft using logic gates — a ground-up digital logic exercise that makes computer architecture tangible.

I'm a student studying Further Maths, Maths, and Computer Science A-levels. Based in Harpenden, I'm interested in building things from first principles: ranging from raycasting engines to ML game AI or financial models.


In the future I'm aiming for a career in quantitative finance as it coalesces mathematics, probability, and computation. If you're hiring interns, running programmes, or just want to talk maths and code, I'd love to hear from you.
