About me

I am an associate editor at Nature Reviews Clean Technology, mostly covering renewable energy. Sometimes I code stupid things, like an AI that generates fictional english villages, or a bot that tweets the location of trains carrying nuclear waste. I have a PhD in plastic electronics from Imperial College London (2016), and have worked in academic publishing, science writing, and knowledge transfer in London, New York, and Helsinki.

I sing bass in New York Choral Society and I co-founded Harmonies of Hope childrens choir for paediatric transplant patients and their siblings.
