hello, i'm clara!

fun fact: this image is AI generated! I trained a flux LoRA Model using 10 (pretty scrappy) images of myself and generated this (scarily) realistic image of me in a yellow sundress.

i'm a software engineer working in the AI space.

I thrive on curiosity, experimentation, and building things that solve real problems. Check out my side projects on this website and read my technical ramblings here

about me
from journalism to SWE

I'm a software engineer who took an unconventional path into tech. Trained as a Chemist and previously a journalist, I started building tools to automate the repetitive bits of my job. One of the first things I created was a writing assistant that could generate first drafts of news articles. This soon got me hooked and I haven't looked back since!

In my free time, I experiment with AI tools (currently looking at multi agentic flows), contribute to open source (posthog!), teach python and GenAI to adult learners and write technical content on Medium - come check it out and give it a follow :)

life outside my 9-5
key strengths

I'm a generalist and a fast learner. I take ideas and turn them into an end product, end to end. I thrive on rapid iteration, moving fast and shipping things that solve real problems.

For leisure, I love hiking, being outdoors in nature, and exploring new food places. Believe it or not, as a creative outlet, I've occasionally sell nut butters and tiramisus on the internet – it's been fun!
