Hi! I’m Miles, a PhD student studying experimental, high energy, particle, physics. I’m interested in all things physics, in particular computational and mathematical physics and machine learning applications to fundamental experiment. Primarily, I am an experimentalist but am always looking to expand my horizons.

Currently, I am affiliated with the ATLAS collaboration at CERN working with the \(H \rightarrow \tau\tau\) analysis. Previously, I worked on algorithm development for \(\tau\) energy scale calibration at the ATLAS experiment using a novel Mixture-Density-Network approach. I plan on continuing these efforts in both analysis and algorithm development.
