About

I am a researcher in information systems and privacy engineering, focusing on the design of decentralised, privacy‑preserving data systems and digital infrastructure. My work sits at the intersection of data governance, distributed system design, and digital platforms, with a focus on enabling trusted and responsible data sharing in complex organisational and societal contexts. My current research program explores data transaction micro‑contracts on private data stores, enabling individuals and organisations to define and enforce their own data use terms. This work contributes to emerging directions in data sovereignty, trusted data ecosystems, and privacy‑preserving AI, and has been presented at the Solid Symposium 2026 with peer‑reviewed publications. I have nearly 20 years’ post PhD exp
