I’m an MTS on Anthropic Alignment. Previously, I was a research scientist on Google DeepMind’s Frontier Safety team, where I led conceptual development of safety cases and threat modelling. I also helped launch ambitious research organizations for scientific progress at Convergent Research, and co-founded Copysmith (acquired), where I led a 30+ person team and engineering. Before then, I studied Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo.
My primary aim is to increase the surface area of ambitious actions we are willing to take to help AI go well. I spend a lot of time thinking about how to make decisions that are fully coherent with my values; to be simultaneously morally courageous, and to move through life alight with joy.
