Exhibit 03 · Media
Three podcasts, one print newspaper, one blog. Research is where I test arguments; this is where I test whether they survive contact with an audience — and with the people the arguments are about.
Profiles of young people doing uncommon things — a 14-year-old who built financial infrastructure for Nepal, a 16-year-old using visual art to change school culture. The premise: the most interesting answers about what's possible often come from people who haven't yet been told what isn't.
Economic and policy analysis of current events — what the pricing of lab-grown meat reveals about regulatory capture, what the renewables transition implies for energy geopolitics, what it means that the post-WWII order is reorganizing without American leadership. The goal isn't to summarize what happened but to ask what the structure underneath it implies.
Lab-Grown Meat Is Finally Cheaper Than Chicken — But Should We Eat It?

AI:ON
A 5-episode documentary series exploring how AI reshapes global industries — the format experiment that became Beyond the Headlines. Presented at the BBIS school exhibition.
A four-person recorded discussion — no script, structured questions. The format is deliberate: defending a position in real time, against people who have read the same material and disagree, produces different thinking than writing to a prompt alone. Economics as it actually works: contested, alive, and occasionally wrong.
Student publication at BBIS Berlin. As Editor-in-Chief, the job is less about writing than about what to assign and to whom — editorial judgment about what questions the school community should be asking and what angles haven't been covered. The editorial focus is accountability reporting and cross-cultural analysis for a community of seventy-plus nationalities.
Personal essays — on migration and belonging, on what podcast guests say when I stop recording, on what a photo exhibition about conflict actually feels like when you're standing in front of it. Less formal than the research; it's where I figure out what I think before I know how to argue it.
