Attending Stanford Trust & Safety Research Conference to give a research presentation on ongoing work studying the impact of AI-mediated search on publishers.
I am a PhD student at the University of Pennsylvania in the Computer and Information Science department where I am advised by Professor Danaé Metaxa as a member of Penn HCI.
My research spans HCI, computational social science, and responsible AI. I use experimental and qualitative methods to study how AI is reshaping information ecosystems, particularly online news, and I conduct AI audits to evaluate fairness and bias and guide the design of harm-mitigating interventions. More recently, as a '26 Summer Fellow at Stanford RegLab, I've collaborated with a government agency to responsibly bring legal AI tooling into its workflows.
Before starting my PhD, I worked as a software engineer in the tech industry, first at Sisu Data, then at Apple. I earned both my MS in Computer Science and my BS in Symbolic Systems from Stanford University. My work has been generously supported by an AWS gift for research in Trustworthy AI.
