The domains where I study how systems fail predictable groups of people.
Maternal, cognitive, and psychological systems - the recurring patterns in how products, services, and institutions break down around the humans they claim to serve.
Research in public / AI evaluation
The Voynich AI claim check
An AI-assisted investigation led by my questions. I tested a promising pattern, then added a stricter control that changed what the result could mean. The code and predictions are open to inspection.

Maternal Systems
Maternal systems fail because care load is invisible to organisational metrics. The most complex operational intelligence on Earth is structurally excluded from every system that measures productivity.
Failure pattern: isolation from the network
Cognitive Systems
Cognitive systems fail when interfaces assume everyone processes information the same way. Numerical exclusion, attention fragmentation, and literacy barriers are treated as user error instead of design failure.
Failure pattern: access degrades by design
In my toolkitCognitive EngineEvidence into usable UX decisionsPsychological Systems
Psychological systems fail when interfaces re-traumatise the people they claim to help. Trust breaks when information is fragmented, when consent is performative, and when safety is an afterthought.
Failure pattern: path ends with no exit
Each domain above has a corresponding lab experiment - tools and prototypes built to test these failure patterns in practice.
