Background

About David Lambert

I'm a writer, researcher, and communications professional with over 12 years of experience across fields such as AI and emerging technologies, international development, and global policy. My work—as both a writer and ghostwriter— has appeared in outlets including TIME, Foreign Affairs, Newsweek, and Harvard Business Review. In December, 2025, my book on existential risks will be published by Hachette Book Group. Since starting my career at the United Nations, I’ve developed a specialty in translating complex ideas into clear, compelling narratives—whether for policymakers, business leaders, or general audiences. Driven by curiosity and a wide range of interests, I thrive in interdisciplinary environments and enjoy collaborating with everyone from engineers and scientists to legal experts and government officials. Beyond work, I'm a master-certified scuba diver and avid traveler. Born in Australia, raised in Thailand, and having worked across Africa and Latin America, I'm passionate about cross-cultural connection and lifelong learning through global exploration.
