Karma: 191

My previous career was as a manager in a fraud detection team, however I have now returned to fulltime study (psychology) in search of more fulfilling daily work and having more time for EA-related interests.

I am trying to help regrow EA @ Macquarie University.

Outside of study and group organising, I have been spending time researching antimalarial bed nets and intend to continue to do so for the indefinite future. However, I am keenly interested in most EA-mainstream cause areas: global poverty, animal welfare, improving our long-term prospects and/​or general movement building.
