My work sits between AI systems, political strategy, and the institutional questions that emerge when technical power moves faster than governance.

I am especially drawn to how competition shapes behavior: where coordination breaks down, how AI races distort incentives, and why those failures often fall hardest on countries with less bargaining power.

On the technical side, I work on evaluation and interpretability, trying to understand how models reason, where they fail, and what more rigorous assessment might look like in practice.

Elsewhere, I’m on GitHub and reachable by mail.
