I am a fifth year Ph.D. candidate at the University of Michigan School of Information and Computer Science & Engineering, where I am advised by Dr. Florian Schaub (SI advisor) and Dr. Nikola Banovic (CSE advisor). I'm completing both Ph.D. programs' requirements.

As a Human-Computer Interaction researcher, I design and build consentful social computing systems. Specifically, I combine systems-building, empirical methods, and theoretical approaches to tackle integrity issues on social platforms, such as online harassment, surveillance, and data ownership problems. By focusing on the relationship between such issues and users’ consent, I develop ways to improve socio-technical systems’ privacy controls, safety and governance tools, and business models in the hopes of contributing to designing a safer internet.
