Hi there! I am a 5th-year Information Science PhD candidate at Cornell Tech, based in New York City. I am a part of the Cornell Social Technologies Lab and am advised by Mor Naaman.
My work traces how technological innovations impact civic information consumption. I aim to understand how news media and social media can sustain reliable civic information environments, and how we can best measure successful outcomes. I leverage mixed-method techniques from the Human-Computer Interaction, Computational Social Science, and Natural Language Processing to publish in venues like CHI, CSCW, and ICWSM. In my recent work, I have developed methods that leverage Large Language Models to understand and measure information environments.
Before my PhD, I was a Product Manager at Microsoft. I graduated with a B.Sc. in Computer Science and Non-Fiction from Brown University in 2017.
