About

I tend to explore ideas through reading, writing and building projects. Rather than keeping interests separate, I try to work on problems where philosophy, behavioural science, and design overlap. Being & Thought came about through this desire to bring my interests together, where neuroscience, philosophy, economics, art and even music are unified through related connections.

While pursuing my master's degree, I built Libriax, a reading analytics platform that grew out of my interest in long-term habits, reading, attention, and motivation. The project placed second in a public launch competition and continues to evolve.

I have since expanded into more technical projects such as Behavioural Engines and Behavioural Atlas, where I explore how behavioural science can be translated into interactive systems. These projects involve building simulations of behavioural economic models and mapping cognitive biases within a structured network, while also teaching myself more modern development stacks.

Most recently, reading Rutger Bregman's Moral Ambition pushed me to think more seriously about what to actually do with my own capital of knowledge to make a meaningful, morally grounded impact. The result was School of Bias, an educational platform for behavioural science built in Svelte, where each lesson is grounded in primary research, with lessons designed to make the material genuinely engaging.

Interests

Outside of work, I spend a lot of time reading philosophy and literature. On the philosophy side of things, I really enjoy the work and ideas of Karl Popper and Bertrand Russell however, on other days, my favourites can vary from Nietzsche all the way to John Stuart Mill. In terms of literature, McCarthy, Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy are all favourites. I play chess regularly and was part of the Manchester Chess Society during my undergraduate years.

I also play competitive squash, having represented both the University of Manchester and the University of Glasgow, the latter of which I was the number one player for and winner of the 2025 University Championship. Running has become an increasingly important part of my life, and I have tried to connect it with causes I care about, having raised £675 for Alzheimer's disease in an endurance run, and more recently, completing the Prague Marathon and raising £1,100 for cancer research. I play the saxophone, have a genuine interest in art, particularly German Expressionism, I love architecture and its history and really enjoy drawing.
