As a passionate freelancer, I’m committed to delivering high-quality work and reliable solutions for my clients. I want to help you to make the most of your textual data and provide the necessary training for your team. Get in touch today so we can start on your next project.
ABOUT ME
Hi there! I am a freelancer and a final year computer science PhD student at University College London. I used to develop algorithms for chatbots that can engage in argumentative dialogues, trying to persuade the user to accept the chatbot's stance. My expertise therefore mainly lies in knowledge acquisition/representation and, of course, natural language processing. I also have over 10 years of experience in teaching and tutoring. I am also a mentor at Crimson Education, a tutor at The Profs, and a member of the part-time tutor panel at the University of Oxford in the Department of Continuing Education.
Many companies that are dealing with textual data are using sub-optimal solutions to analyse it (like MS Excel). My goal is to provide those companies with the necessary training and tools to make the most of their textual data. To learn about my background and research, browse through this site, check out my academic site which lists my experience and publications, or feel free to reach out directly.

SERVICES
How I Can Help
NLP AND DATA SCIENCE TRAINING
No Fear of Coding
I am providing professional training tailored to the client's needs in natural language processing, data science, or both. I have a lot of experience in teaching people with no technical background. By the end of the training my client's team will have all the necessary knowledge in statistics and coding to implement their own solutions with the help of machine learning.
NLP SOLUTIONS
Reliable Results
Sometimes clients only deal with a one time project that requires text analysis. In this case I am offering all the necessary analysis and solutions depending on the client's needs (preprocessing, labeling, pattern recognition, classification, clustering etc).
PRICE LIST
Take Your Pick
The prices are indicative and depend on your team's skills (regarding training) and project requirements.
NLP TRAINING COURSE
360£-480£
During this one day* training course you and your team will learn everything to get started with natural language processing, including data cleaning and preprocessing, text normalisation, information extraction, implementation of machine learning algorithms and anything else which your projects require.
This training course assumes some basic Python programming knowledge, but can be adjusted to those that have no coding experience.
*This course can be delivered in three parts during the course of three days.
DATA SCIENCE CAMP
1500£
This one-week camp will provide an introduction to the most fundamental data analytic tools and techniques, and will allow your team to analyse real-world data and apply the newly learned skills to the type of data you are handling in your projects.
The content of the course entirely depends on your company's needs and can be delivered in either R or Python.
INITIAL DATA EXPLORATION
120£
If you are interested in a one-time solution only, I will be able to tell you after some initial data exploration whether I have the necessary expertise and tools to take on your job.
ONE-TIME PROJECT AND PRESENTATION OF RESULTS
500£
Analysis of textual data and presentation of results, without further maintenance (data acquisition, data cleaning and preprocessing, text normalisation, information extraction, classification, clustering, etc).
MINIMUM VIABLE PRODUCT
900£
Delivering a product for future data analysis of the same kind that can be reused by your team, including the necessary training.
DOMAIN SPECIFIC CHATBOT DEVELOPMENT
on request
