James Westwood.
Data scientist & ML engineer.

I build production ML and GenAI systems, currently as a Senior Data Scientist at the Food Standards Agency. On the side, I work on projects aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. My interests sit at the intersection of climate, the public sector, and getting real systems into production.
