About

I am an educationalist and entrepreneur. Through my companies, Cambridge Valid and MPL, I provide and organise business and academic training, including online lectures and teacher training, as well as courses in Cambridge. Our clients come from Europe, China, and other parts of the world. As an Applied Linguist, I developed a system for text analysis and my current interests include educational applications of ChatGPT.

I am also an ethical philosopher working with the Institute of Fundamental Research, the Polish Academy of Sciences, and the Jagiellonian University Medical College. I collaborate as an author in publications, contributor to grant applications, and lecturer. My publications here focus on artificial intelligence, education, and ethics.

    One ambition I have includes the ambition to exploit this work commercially in enhancing the brand of a drinks company!
