Home: Welcome

Science writer, scholar and speaker at academic conferences and at events for non-specialist audiences.  A data scientist, machine learning engineer, and competition economist, in a previous life, a linguist, conflict economist, ancient economic historian, archaeologist, and yet never wavered from game theory. After teaching game theory for over a decade, I am passionate about maths, data and human behaviour. My quest is to discover how we can sustain peace through empathy, which is the foundational assumption of game theory. First, however, we must fully understand the causes of conflict. Below a brief Tedx talk on that. 

I am currently creating a channel on YouTube to inspire other promiscuous interdisciplinarians.
