I work as a "quantum" software engineer at the Hartree Centre (STFC) in the UK. I am also a visiting research fellow affiliated with the University of Cambridge - Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry - fostering theoretical and computational chemistry research in partnership with STFC. Currently, I collaborate with IBM Quantum (Switzerland, UK and Ireland), AstraZeneca, and Algorithmiq.

I am a core developer of Qiskit Machine Learning, a community product that can help you build and run machine learning workloads on quantum computers seamlessly using Qiskit.

• Euclid space mission Consortium (Theory Science Working Group)
• CMB Stage-4 experiments Collaboration

I am passionately committed to the principles of open science and open data, viewing them as drivers of impactful innovation and discovery. Are you interested in finding out more? Read the European Commission open science principles. If specifically interested in how the EU shares open data, visit the Open Data Maturity reports and the Data Stories at data.europa.eu - Publications Office of the EU, which I contributed to.
