Where I have worked, what I studied, and the boards and councils I sit on.
Leading the Claude Builder Club at Oxford. I built the curriculum from scratch — an eight-week hands-on programme covering web scraping, security guardrails, API integrations and remote MCP server configuration — and run weekly vibe coding sessions alongside guest showcases from community members and two hackathons, aimed at Oxford’s founder and builder communities.
Working with the Fairwork project on transparency and accountability in how AI systems are built. Together we launched the Fairwork AI Supply Chain Certification, which helps companies examine and improve the labour and sourcing practices behind their AI tools — work that matters most in regions where data labour stays invisible and conditions can fall below fair standards.
Five and a half years in product marketing across Seattle, Vancouver and New York, moving from Microsoft Teams through the Microsoft 365 portfolio to M365 Copilot.
Microsoft’s internal point person on how Copilot competed with Gemini: tracking Google’s product developments and translating them into strategic recommendations for engineering and leadership, then working directly with engineering teams to close the capability gaps that analysis surfaced. Alongside that, product messaging, go-to-market assets, business plans, NDA roadmaps and market research.
Led Americas go-to-market strategy across M365 Copilot, Teams and the Frontline Worker portfolio, covering AI positioning, demand generation and partner ecosystem development. Built integration partnerships with ISVs and device vendors including SAP and Samsung, creating the first customer-facing partner solution assets for the Frontline Worker ecosystem, and led the planning of Microsoft’s flagship AI event, Future of Work, in 2024.
Led the deployment strategy for Microsoft Teams in regulated industries — financial services, healthcare and US government — and among small and medium-sized businesses, through the peak of pandemic growth. Built industry-specific use cases, including a healthcare library spanning payor and provider scenarios, and work on enabling virtual surgery.
MSc, Social Science of the Internet
The OII is Oxford’s department for studying the internet as a social phenomenon rather than a technical one, and the MSc is taught across the social sciences — sociology, economics, politics, law and data science — by people asking what these systems are doing to institutions and to the people inside them.
My thesis, The New Demands of Entrepreneurship: Founder Capability and Venture Creation in the Age of Generative AI, asked what building a company now requires of the person doing it.
BS in Economics, the Wharton School, concentrating in Marketing and Operations Management. BA in International Relations, the School of Arts & Sciences, with a minor in Francophone Studies.
Huntsman is a dual-degree programme run jointly by Wharton and the School of Arts & Sciences, pairing business with international studies and a target language — French, in my case. Four years of reading the same questions from two directions at once: how markets work, and what they do to the countries they run through.
Leading efforts to manage an alumni fund for international student scholarships, and driving student professional development initiatives within the Huntsman Program at the University of Pennsylvania.
I am a fellow at Thinking About Thinking, an independent non-profit that builds the intellectual infrastructure around one question: what intelligence is, and how it comes to be. The fellowship is a standing society of researchers, engineers, clinicians, artists and founders spread across more than 200 cities, working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, neuroscience, cognitive science, robotics and mathematics.
What fellows actually do is correspond and convene. We read and argue with each other’s work through the year, exchange papers and books in the Reading Room, and gather in person at seminars, salons and the annual meeting, which are largely run by the fellows who volunteer the week.
Supporting Oxford’s AI entrepreneurship community by connecting student founders with resources, mentorship and opportunities to build at the intersection of AI and real-world impact.
Selected as one of fifteen employees for the Microsoft Americas Trust and Transparency Board, shaping subsidiary leadership’s strategy for building confidence and trust within the organisation.
