About Me

I'm an experienced Data-Scientist and Statistician helping organisations make better decisions through data and experimentation. Using my expertise in Bayesian methods, Causal inference and Probabilistic AI I've learned to drive impact across multiple industries. I share what i've learned here.

Recent Highlights

Building the Mechanism: Front-Door Identification with Bayesian SEMs

My talk for the Causal Data Science Meeting 2026. The front-door criterion identifies causal effects despite unmeasured confounding, but only if the mediator carries the whole effect. I argue the mediator should be built, not found, and show how to audit that construction with Bayesian SEMs in PyMC.
