Hey there, I'm Zo. Welcome to my digital garden. I like building things, and I'm currently leading Product at the UK Government's AI Security Institute.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring the intersection of technology and geopolitics, vibe coding, reading, learning new languages, and travelling to Paris whenever my budget allows.

I do some writing as well, albeit not as consistently. I'm working on being better at that.
