Understanding what holds a system back.
Building around what matters.
Energy. Hydrogen. Supply chains. Complex systems. Attention.
The idea behind the work
Move your pointer through the network.
From energy and production to human attention, I study what limits a system and what happens when that limit shifts.
Read the argumentSelected work
I understand complex systems, find the constraint,
model the interactions, and build solutions around it.
Hydrogen research
Turning electricity variability into an operating decision. Carbon-aware hydrogen production, modeled across five Australian states.

An experimental architecture
Attention. An architecture designed to explore whether targeted intervention can restore cognitive control.

Built on AEMO NEM market data and Electricity Maps carbon signals. The same dispatch logic extends to battery storage and power market arbitrage.
The electrolyzer follows grid carbon intensity in tiers: full 20 kg/hour output in the cleanest hours, stepping down to 3 kg/hour when the grid runs dirtiest.
Open the paper
Tasmania holds maximum capacity all year on its clean grid; South Australia runs high on renewables; the eastern states throttle back through carbon-heavy months.
Open the paper
Concentrating output in clean-grid hours brings monthly emissions down sharply against flat production, with the deepest cuts where the grid is cleanest.
Open the paperSystems methodology · R-02 preprint
Model-based systems engineering and hetero-functional graph theory bring system structure into spatio-temporal life cycle analysis.
01 · Hetero-functional graph
Follow electricity from generation to hydrogen. Circles represent operands, bars represent processes, and connecting lines represent flows.
02 · SysML model
Research, with the record intact.
