I research what AI can do next, then build the systems and experiments to find out what holds up.
The space between an emerging capability and a redesigned enterprise. That is where evidence, judgment and thoughtful implementation matter just as much as the technology.

The work below is my own, built end to end and separate from my role at PwC.
Selected work
Attribution scored +15 to +45 points over the strongest gradient-free baseline on IOI in Gemma-2-2B, in 12 of 12 cells, and only when the circuit was spread across token positions.
Test attribution against the strongest cheap baseline first. It only earned its cost when the circuit was spread across token positions.
3 of 16 cases diverged from a pinned Gitea reference. In one, both sides reported success and the resulting state still differed.
A mock can agree on the reply and still leave a different state behind.
Consent goes into an append-only, hash-chained ledger before a policy hook can allow, deny or flag the order for review.
Settle what an agent may buy on its own, and what needs a person, while designing the checkout, not after an order ships.
Agent Boundary Assurance
DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20815336
An evidence discipline for what a local or enterprise agent accesses, remembers, transforms and sends.
After a lost reply, a restarted caller recovers the recorded result. No duplicate issue is created.
A lost reply means unknown, not failed. Ask the system of record before retrying anything with side effects.

The arc tends to repeat: loud enthusiasm, then a small number of teams quietly figuring out what is real and shipping it.
I write the question and the test first, read the runs, and keep the results that go against me.
