Hi! I see you've stumbled across my little web page.

I'm a Research Associate in Natural Language Processing at the Institute for Applied Informatics in Leipzig, Germany, as part of the CORAL project. We're building privacy-preserving language models, developing methods of data obfuscation, as well as making models 'forget'. I am also currently working on releasing the Grew-TSE Python package on PyPI for the generation of minimal-pair tests (using treebanks) for the evaluation of language-model syntactic performance.

I hail from Dublin, Ireland. I received a BSc Computer Science with Data Science from University College Dublin in 2022 and an MA Linguistics from University Leipzig in 2025, the latter funded by a DAAD Scholarship. I have also worked on building machine translation models for the EUComMeet project, tools for low-resource languages, and a database for the Institute of Linguistics. You can find my Master's thesis here, titled "Cross-Linguistic Syntactic Evaluation of Transformers via Treebank Querying".
