As of Fall 2022 I am a fourth year SES PhD Student at Massachusetts Institute of Technology focusing on computational social science. I’m broadly interested in using large scale data to support human rights and violence prevention efforts, as well as Internet accessibility and freedom of expression online. Last semester my work and path to graduate school were featured in MIT News. I am lucky to be advised by Dr. Fotini Christia.
Before starting at MIT I worked in Cloudflare’s DC Office as a Policy Analyst where I focused on corporate social responsibility, namely organizing Project Galileo and the Athenian Project. I graduated from Harvard in 2017 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a minor in Government.
In college, I was a letter winner on the Harvard-Radcliffe Lightweight Rowing Team and in my spare time I’ve coached high school rowing for Bethesda Chevy Chase High School and group fitness at [solidcore], Harvard, and MIT.
