I figure out how to design and govern AI systems in highly regulated domains. Currently, I am focused on designing AI mental health and well-being products and their safety guardrails, and evaluating LLM capabilities like persuasion and theory of mind.
I'm a postdoctoral researcher in Information Science at Cornell, and an affiliate of the MINT and Social-Centered AI labs.
Previously at Google Research, I translated fairness and safety research into data collection policies and product requirements for speech technologies.
Before academia, I spent eight years across strategy consulting and law -- including regulatory negotiations for Australia's national broadband network and anti-corruption litigation in Guatemala. I like turning research into good decisions inside fast-moving, regulated organizations.
