I am:

• a DPhil (PhD) student in the Reasoning with Machines Lab, supervised by Adam Mahdi at the Oxford Internet Institute;
• an inaugural Cosmos Fellow at the Laboratory for Human-Centered AI, supervised by Philipp Koralus and supported by the Cosmos Institute.

My academic work addresses the space of questions like these:

• Do large language models have cognitive capabilities?
• How can we build valid measures of intelligent behaviour in machines?
• How can we ascribe cognitive concepts to AI systems in an epistemologically and scientifically suitable way?
• How does (and should) our ascription of these cognitive concepts change the shape of our interactions with AI?

Previously, I studied Philosophy (BAH) and Computer Science (BS) at Stanford University. I wrote a thesis about trust—what it is, philosophically, and what is required for a philosophically defensible account of trust in explainable AI literature. More recently, I completed my MSc at the Oxford Internet Institute. My MSc thesis addresses the more technical question of construct validity in large language model evaluations (and should be publicly available soon!)

I was also a Founder in Residence at Entrepreneur First, worked at Monte Carlo Data as a Founding Data Scientist, did NLP research with Stanford OVAL, and wrote three chapters of the Data Quality Fundamentals textbook with O’Reilly Media.
