Bio

I am a Data Scientist (AI Agent R&D) at Suncorp Group, leading AI transformation for the natural perils pricing. My work sits at the intersection of insurance, geo- and climate science, and AI agent engineering — translating cutting-edge AI research into production systems for climate risk and pricing decisions.

Previously, I was a postdoctoral applied scientist at CSIRO’s Data61, Australia’s national research institute, where I led applied NLP research across healthcare and affective computing — applying LLMs and language technology to real-world, high-stakes problems. I supervised and mentored junior data scientist, and led CSIRO’s annual participation in Semantic Evaluation shared tasks. Beyond my current industry role, I remain active in the NLP research community as a reviewer for ACL Rolling Review (ARR), and member of ALTA, member of ACL.

I hold a PhD in Natural Language Processing 🎓 from the University of Melbourne, where my research also spanned inter-disciplinary applications in computational linguistics and computational biology (BioNLP).
