Year 2 Student - 2025 Cohort - Cohort 7

My academic background is in philosophy (MLitt, BA) and international law and development (LLM). During my first professional career, I worked for purpose-led organisations whilst headhunting and managing teams and overseas projects. 

In my second career, I am bringing together my interests in ethics, law, and technology to cybersecurity as a force to create good. As an avid traveller and having lived, loved and been reborn in several countries, I am interested in exploring the limits of cybersecurity, especially in protecting people in constant change.

Epistemic trust in OSINT: Provenance and the challenge of AI-generated content

Under what conditions can epistemic trust in OSINT be maintained when AI-generated content disrupts existing methods of provenance verification?

This project reframes the post-trust problem in epistemic terms by looking at the conditions necessary under which any source can warrant belief, regardless of how it was produced (AI-generated or otherwise). The goal is to produce a guidance through Delphi validation with high-stakes OSINT actors, providing a decision-process practitioners can apply under real time and resource constraints.
