-My DPhil studies are supported by the EPSRC and a departmental stipend. +Before ​joining ​the department in Oxford ​and moving (back) into NLP, I did a couple of other things. I have an MA (oxon.) in Computer Science and an MSc in International Politics. Also, I spent some time with the [[http://​ec.europa.eu/​|European Commission]] and several years with [[http://​www.mckinsey.com/​|McKinsey & Company]]. Here is my {{:​cv.pdf|CV}}.
