Most of my time was spent working on PolkaVM, which, while being one of many implementations of PVM (as described in the JAM Graypaper), is also the main vehicle for prototyping of any new additions to the PVM spec before they end up in the Graypaper.
In total I've made 250+ new commits to the PolkaVM repository, totaling over 50k+ lines of code and 50+ PRs, with too many changes to comprehensively list here; anyone interested in the gory details can take a look at the list of commits and/or the list of PRs I have made. My work has also directly resulted in numerous changes to the PVM spec.
Here are some of the highlights:

I have also been closely collaborating with the Smart Contracts team within Parity to help bring Smart Contracts to the Asset Hub on Polkadot, where PolkaVM will be used as the VM of choice. This work is currently still in-progress, with the first prototype already deployed on Westend.
I have also consulted on the PolkaVM parachains runtimes MVP, although I haven't directly contributed code to that effort in polkadot-sdk
.
Finally, I have hosted a guest talk during the Polkadot Blockchain Academy in Singapore regarding PolkaVM and PVM.
In the next six months I plan to continue to focus on PolkaVM, help get the PVM spec finalized for JAM 1.0, and support the Smart Contracts team.

I admit my voting record activity is not as high as it should be; I will make a conscious effort to do better and vote more often.
