About
About
My work sits at the intersection of educational technology, learning design, and education policy. Shaped by over a decade of experience across finance, health, and education sectors, my work explores how emerging technologies can be translated into practical learning, assessment, and professional development strategies that support learner agency, equity, and meaningful educational change.
Across these sectors, I design learning solutions and provide strategic consultation for educational technology initiatives. My work is grounded in research on learner experiences, technology adoption, and the human factors that shape whether educational innovations are engaging, equitable, and effective.
My current focus is on human-centred AI in education, including AI literacy, responsible AI adoption, assessment redesign, AI-assisted learning design, and the evaluation of AI-enabled educational technologies. I am especially interested in how educators, learners, and institutions can use emerging technologies critically and effectively while keeping human development, accessibility, and well-being at the centre.
I also bring a strong interest in art and design to my work. This creative perspective allows me to communicate complex ideas visually and design learning materials that are not only pedagogically sound, but also engaging, accessible, and human-centred.

Creative Explorations:
When I’m not immersed in work, I occasionally trade my laptop for a canvas to explore abstract painting. My practice as an abstract artist informs how I think about learning, perception, and human experience. Painting allows me to explore complexity, ambiguity, and meaning-making, all of which directly shape my work in education, design, and technology. Below are a few of my artistic explorations:
Light After Tide
Stillness Beneath Wings
Echo Through Branches
Radiant After All
