About Me

Hi, I’m Charlie — a scientist, coder, and musician.

I completed my PhD in Theoretical/Computational Chemistry at the University of Cambridge, where I explored how chromatin — the stuff that packages DNA — behaves and organises itself. My research combined molecular simulations, theory, and collaboration with labs around the world to better understand how proteins like H1 linker histones influence genome architecture.

Beyond research, I’m passionate about building smart tools and applying machine learning to real-world science problems. I currently work as the principal life sciences innovation lead at Intellegens, where I help solve challenging problems at the intersection of chemistry, biology, and AI.

In my spare time, I enjoy writing software, taking part in fitness events, and making music. Whether it’s molecular dynamics, ML, or strange music — I like untangling tricky problems and turning them into something useful (and maybe even a little elegant).
