I am a Professor (Chair in Machine Learning Systems) at the Department of Computer Science, the University of Warwick, where I lead the ML Systems Lab. I am a Fellow of the Alan Turing Institute, the UK’s national institute for data science and AI. At the Turing, I am also an Independent Scientific Advisor for the BridgeAI programme, and a member of the Turing Research Ethics (TREx) team.

Previously I was a Senior Research Scientist at Samsung AI Centre Cambridge, where my team worked on Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) for On-device Intelligence. I did my postdoctoral research with the Cyber-Physical Systems Group in the Department of Computer Science (formerly known as the Computing Laboratory, or Comlab), University of Oxford, and studied Computer Science at Keble College, Oxford.

We have multiple openings for PhD/internship positions for 2025 entry. Scholarships available from various sources at Warwick. Please make contact for further information.
