Hello!
I am a Ph.D. candidate and social computing researcher at the University of Washington, based in the Center for an Informed Public.
My research examines user engagement with interventions, pro-social behavior, and problematic content across online platforms.
I draw on human-computer interaction and data science techniques informed by social science theories to empirically measure and experimentally mitigate harmful beliefs and behaviors. My work aims to contribute to online trust and safety by aiding user disengagement from and resilience against conspiracy theories, extremism, and rumors.
I have a MS from Cornell University and a BA from the George Washington University. Between degrees, I worked in analyst, data scientist, and project management roles.
