Welcome to my website. I’m a Product Policy Lead for Multimodal Generative AI at Google, based in London. I’ve previously worked in research and policy capacities at Ofcom, the Alan Turing Institute, the University of Oxford’s Internet Institute, and MIT, and have considerable consulting and broadcast media experience.

In 2023, I successfully defended my PhD (DPhil) at the Oxford Internet Institute, which looked at the growing governance role played by the operators of app stores, and the implications of this for democracy and online participation. During a decade in academic research, I studied several areas of digital technology, the ethics and governance of AI, the deployment of AI in the contexts of health and sustainable development, online political communication, and the applicability of political-theoretical concepts like sovereignty and legitimacy in the digital age. My past research also included work on big data, digital state surveillance, and the use of web archives in research.

In my spare time, my main interest is in growing, cooking, and fermenting food, and you can see recent creations below.
