About

From the school library,
to building the tools.

I design AI-literacy frameworks, build learning platforms, and make apps that help people think with AI instead of handing their thinking to it, from Prep to vocational training.

Most of what I build started in a school library. For eighteen months at St Andrew's Anglican College I ran literacy lessons for the youngest students and, on my own, designed and built the College's Research Hub, a learning platform that grew to over 2,000 daily users. That's where VERIFY, Reality Audit and much of Big Wella came from: a student who couldn't find a book they'd enjoy, a citation they didn't understand, or a search that came back empty.

I'm now Digital Solutions Coordinator at Allens Training, a national registered training organisation, where I lead how AI and automation are used across the business. Alongside that I run Big Wella, building child-safe apps for Australian classrooms; I've co-founded Wovyn, a lesson-planning app for teachers; and I'm an MSc candidate in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Colorado Boulder.

My degree was in English Literature, which is really where it began: how stories shape thinking, and how the right question at the right moment changes a conversation. Before education I led a team of six across a 550-site clinic network, and earlier still I played professional basketball. I pick up new systems quickly and put them straight to use.

Every project starts with one goal: to make people want to learn again.
