I am an interdisciplinary behavioural scientist working in psychology, economics, and philosophy. In late 2022, I successfully defended my PhD titled ‘Moral Decision-Making: Essays from Philosophy and Economics’ at the University of St Andrews. During my PhD, I was a Global Priorities Fellow at the Forethought Foundation/Global Priorities Institute and an Oskar Morgenstern Fellow at the Mercatus Center. My work has been published in journals such as the Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics, Experimental Psychology, Review of Philosophy and Psychology, and many others. It has also been covered in places like The Times, Psychology Today, and Die Zeit, among other outlets.
I currently work as a research analyst at the Forecasting Research Institute where I conduct research on artificial intelligence forecasting, low-probability predictions, and intersubjective metrics. I am also a Metaculus Pro Forecaster, having worked on projects with Our World in Data and the Federation of American Scientists, as well as a forecaster for the Swift Centre. My academic research spans the areas social/personality psychology, behavioural economics, and experimental philosophy. Specifically, I have previously worked on effective charitable giving, incentivisation mechanisms, climate-related behaviours, artificial intelligence, political theory, and population ethics, among other topics.
