Besley’s Lab

Data scientist & full-stack developer

Besley’s Lab

Machine-learning projects, interactive demos, and writing on data — plus a small arcade. All built by hand.

What I do

  • Machine learning & NLP

    Transformer pipelines, feature-engineered prediction models, and the evaluation work to know when they actually help.

  • Full-stack engineering

    Next.js, TypeScript, and Prisma apps that put models on a screen — this site included, down to the arcade and the admin.

  • Data & analytics

    Python, SQL, and R, from raw corpus to a dashboard someone can use without a walkthrough.

Get in touch

Open to data science and ML engineering roles, collaborations, and good conversations about models. The inbox is the fastest way to reach me.
