Biostatistician & Data Scientist | 5+ Years in Pharma, Cosmetics & Biotech R&D
Website · LinkedIn · Mastodon · Email
I'm a Biostatistics Consultant and Data Scientist with 5+ years embedded in R&D teams at L'Oréal, Sanofi, Abolis (microbiome biotech), and Chanel Parfums Beauté. I work at the intersection of experimental science and data — from clinical trial design and biostatistics to machine learning and computer vision in production.
Currently building ML and computer vision tools for fragrance R&D at Chanel, on mission via Astek / IT&M Stats.
What drives my work:
- Reproducible, documented science that can be trusted and replicated
- Tools that become invisible — scientists just use them
- Rigour first: working in GxP environments teaches you that claims must match data
- Open source: R, Python, Quarto, Git
