I am a researcher working at the intersection of AI ethics, democratic theory, and social epistemology. During my undergraduate studies at the University of Melbourne, my work focused on the epistemic foundations of democracy – particularly how expertise is recognised, contested, and legitimised in an era of information abundance, algorithmic filtering, and political polarisation. While working at the Social Research Centre, I won Australia’s Research Got Talent competition and conducted a mixed-methods research project investigating misinformation susceptibility among Australian men. I am now working with the Museum of Sticks & Stones to translate these findings into targeted media literacy initiatives aimed at strengthening digital resilience in Australia. I am delighted to be commencing an MPhil in Ethics of AI, Data, and Algorithms at the University of Cambridge, where I hope to integrate philosophical analysis with real-world policy challenges related to truth, trust, and algorithms in democratic societies.
