Two main pages

One site, split between research and running.

I wanted the website to feel clearer and more intentional: one path for my PhD, research notes, and professional profile, and another for athletics, results, and the rhythm that keeps long projects moving.

Shared thread

Both sides reward patience more than noise.

The research page is warmer, slower, and notebook-like. The running page leans more open, kinetic, and airy. They are different on purpose, but they still belong to the same person.

01 Research & PhD Questions, writing, collaborators, and a direct contact form.
02 Running Official profiles, rankings, personal bests, and race imagery.

Research & PhD

Technical AI safety, mechanistic interpretability, and public notes.

The research side gathers my PhD profile, the questions driving the work, selected writing, academic network, and a contact form for collaboration.

Running

Steeplechase focus, official profiles, and race-day images.

The running side brings the athletic profile forward with World Athletics, European Athletics, personal bests, rankings, and a fuller visual story.

Open running page Official results

Orientation

Three quick ways to use the site.

If you are here for research, open the PhD page. If you are here for athletics, open the running page. If you want shorter ideas first, the notes page stays one click away.

Research

PhD profile and agenda

Academic context, open questions, supervision, and selected public writing.

Notes

Short memos, not polished waiting rooms

Public notes make the research process easier to follow before formal papers exist.
