About me

I am an interdisciplinary scientist driven by a deep curiosity about the human mind and a passion for translating scientific discovery into real-world solutions. My journey began with a foundation in physics, where I learned to model complex systems — a skill that would later become central to my efforts to decode the intricacies of human behaviour. This curiosity led me to pursue a DPhil and Postdoctoral training in Clinical and Computational Neuroscience, where I explored how brain function gives rise to cognition, emotion and behaviour — not just in theory, but in the lived experiences of people navigating health, learning and life.

Today, I lead research that blends neuroscience, psychology and cutting-edge AI/ML technologies to understand — and enhance — the human experience. My work centres on the science of cognitive processes: how we learn, decide, adapt, and regulate ourselves in an ever-changing world. But my ultimate goal is to move beyond understanding — to build tools and technologies that improve health outcomes, support lifelong learning and unlock human potential at scale. At the core of my team’s mission is a commitment to scientific rigour, real-world relevance and human-centred innovation. Whether it’s empowering adults to become better learners through metacognitive training, or reimagining developmental screening for autism to make it more accessible and equitable — we aim to turn insights into impact.
