Writing has always been how I make sense of things — like the grey areas between the letter of the law,
and the lives it touches.
Most of my work sits at the intersection of AI, expression, and identity. What happens when the technology that can replicate a voice, a face, or a work collides with the people those things belong to?
I regularly write for peer-reviewed journals, policy bodies, and trade press, and am occasionally asked by news organisations to comment on AI or media matters from a legal perspective. Whatever the audience, I try to make the law feel like what it actually is: a set of stories we tell about power, ownership, and what we owe each other.
I also act as a peer reviewer for academic papers on deepfakes and digital replicas — checking that the legal analysis holds up, the arguments are sound, and the writing is tight.
