I’m an incoming MPhil student at Cambridge in Global Risk and Resilience, interested in biosecurity, AI governance, and how institutions respond to high-consequence risks. My recent work has focused on biosafety governance, including research on incident reporting systems for high-containment laboratories across Europe and North America.

I’m interested in the kinds of risks that are easy to ignore until they become impossible to ignore, especially where technological capability is advancing faster than the institutions meant to govern it. That’s what has drawn me toward biosecurity, AI governance, and resilience.
My recent work has focused on biosafety governance. In particular, I conducted a comparative mapping study of incident reporting systems for high-containment laboratories across the UK, North America, and Europe. What interests me most is not just whether rules exist on paper, but whether institutions actually learn: whether incidents are translated into feedback, safer practice, and better coordination over time.
I’m now starting an MPhil in Global Risk and Resilience at Cambridge, where I hope to build on that work through a project on AI-enabled biological risk and governance. More broadly, I care about helping build institutions that are better at anticipating danger, learning early, and responding before failure forces adaptation.
