I’m an independent research engineer contracting with METR, focused on model evaluations for METR’s time horizon benchmark. I’ve previously worked as a Project Manager at the UK AI Security Institute, led the Existential Security team at Rethink Priorities, and worked on nanotechnology strategy research (resources database here).

I’ve been a Senior Research Scholar at the Future of Humanity Institute and spent 5 years working in finance as a quantitative analyst. Before then, I completed a PhD in DNA nanotechnology at Oxford University. I’ve signed the Giving What We Can pledge.
