I am a passionate choice modeller dedicated to understanding and predicting human behaviour to solve real-world challenges. With expertise spanning sustainability, water, energy, transport, innovation, infrastructure and health, I use mathematical modelling to inform better decision-making. My engineering background, combined with collaborations with psychologists and other multidisciplinary experts, has shaped my unique approach to behavioural modelling. Now working in the heritage sector, I focus on creating insights that drive meaningful change, ensuring that our decisions today contribute to a better future for all.
