I work across epistemology, philosophy of mind, epistemic psychology, AI, and philosophy of representation. My research examines how knowledge, agency, and authority are constituted, with particular attention to epistemic power, recognition, generativity, evaluative standards, and the conditions under which persons and systems can revise them.
I develop frameworks including the Epistemic Architecture of Power, Representational Sealing Theory (ReST), epistemic generativity, the Duck Criterion, evaluative sovereignty, and Objective-Layer AI.

I work across epistemology, philosophy of mind, epistemic psychology, AI, and philosophy of representation. My research examines how knowledge, agency, and authority are constituted, with particular attention to epistemic power, recognition, generativity, evaluative standards, and the conditions under which persons and systems can revise them.
I develop frameworks including the Epistemic Architecture of Power, Representational Sealing Theory (ReST), epistemic generativity, the Duck Criterion, evaluative sovereignty, and Objective-Layer AI. Related work examines epistemic trauma and agency, institutional decision-making, and evaluative dynamics in financial and machine-learning systems.
I bring this work together with a Silicon Valley background in analogue and mixed-signal semiconductor design and systems engineering, giving the research a systems orientation towards representation, failure, agency, and responsibility.
