How we learn and think In my Research , I work across human learning, AI models, and human-AI interaction. I study how people and machines learn from experience, how what they learn is represented and used, and how it shapes what they can do later. I also study what changes when AI becomes part of learning and thinking, including what a person notices, practises, understands, remembers, and decides, and how systems can be designed to support those processes. Things I build I also spend a lot of time building things. I enjoy the open-endedness of it, especially when I can combine ideas, tools, and different parts of a system and see how the structure changes as I work. Some projects are small and personal, like a tool that watches outdoor sale pages and emails me when something I want appears. Others grow through work or research.

At PwC, I have used AI to help people work with complex information, understand existing systems, and make better decisions. The Builds page brings together projects from my work and coursework, along with things I have built on my own and a few projects from secondary school. This website is one of them too. I have been using it to explore how AI can reorganise the same underlying material around what a visitor wants to understand, and how that same process can help me understand and record myself from different angles.
