The Story So Far 📖

From football stats to data-driven strategies.

My journey into football data wasn’t planned. I was just a kid who loved the game. Then during my placement year, I stumbled into data science and realised I could turn that passion into something real. Since then, I’ve been all in. Learning, building, and trying to be the best I can in this space.

I work at Charlton Athletic as a First Team Data Scientist, helping make smarter decisions on and off the pitch. But beyond that, I’m just trying to grow. In my craft, in my character, and in my faith.

I believe in doing honest work, helping others, and using my skills to make a difference in football and beyond.
