People first.
Then, the questions.
A curious listener, an avid storyteller,
and a builder following both instincts.
more to the story.
I’ve always been drawn to what people have to say—and what it takes to really hear them.
From story circles in kindergarten to interviewing Olympians about their journeys, I’ve found myself listening for the details: what mattered to someone, what changed them, and how they came to see the world.
I love hearing a good story. I love telling one, too. Both start with paying attention.
What do we tell each other
without saying a word?
to signals.
Today, that curiosity takes me into the signals people give off: emotion in a voice, changes in physical state, patterns in behaviour, and the stories we choose to share.
I study how technology reads those signals, what it can really understand about a person, and how that understanding can become something useful.
That’s what draws me to human-state intelligence. I want to build things that help people feel understood, find confidence, or make a better decision—and stay thoughtful about what a signal can’t tell us.
Still listening. Still asking.
Usually with another question.
