Hey there. If you're meeting my curated digital self, well, nice to meet you. I hope to meet you properly someday.

A simple rundown. I'm interested in, and actively working on, representations, information quality, and the data engineering underneath it. Entity resolution, NER, classification, and digital identity: decentralised, self-sovereign, and the question of who decides your data is yours. In more marketable terms: record linkage, knowledge graphs, semantic layers, and intelligence.

Lately that means AI agents, and whether one understands what it is acting on, and knows when to refuse. That's me.
