Get in Touch

If you think I might have useful advice to offer, I’d love to chat with you!

Possible things to chat about include but are not limited to:

  • Academic/career/mental health advice
  • AI safety and ethics stuff

My expertise
I am currently work on AI governance, and I have a background in mathematics and machine learning. I also have many years of experience with social justice advocacy and support work.

Some remarks

  • If you don’t know whether you exactly fit the criteria, reach out anyway! I’m glad to talk, and I’d be more than happy to point you in the right direction if I can’t help you directly.
  • We often overweight hesitation and underweight the regret of not reaching out.
  • I’m especially happy to talk to people from disadvantaged or marginalized groups (e.g., racialized groups, criminal background, LGBTQ2S+, etc), or those with non-traditional academic backgrounds (e.g., older, with dependents, etc).
