About me


Right now I'm a Research Scholar and assistant to Toby Ord at Oxford University's Future of Humanity Institute.

I'm interested in effective altruism, longtermism, and existential risk. I write about this kind of thing on my writing page.

Here are some things I'm up to right now:

  • I co-host a podcast called Hear This Idea, which showcases new thinking in philosophy, the social sciences, and effective altruism.

  • I'm thinking about some EA project ideas I'd like to help make happen.

  • I'm a mentor and panelist for the Effective Ideas blog prize.

  • I've been researching space governance as an EA cause area, and now I'm trying to help get this very early field up and running.

  • I'm setting up a prize to support good-faith EA criticism and red-teaming.

  • Some other things you should ask me about in person!

Before this, I interned with Charity Entrepreneurship, and helped Liv Boeree make videos. Before that, I did philosophy at Cambridge.

In my free time I read, listen to music, and play chess badly.

And here is a picture of me:
