I am a fourth-year Computer Science PhD student at the University of Washington,
where I work with Professors
Jamie Morgenstern and
Tadayoshi Kohno
on topics intersecting machine learning and society. My research broadly focuses
on how machine learning systems purposefully or unintentionally harm specific populations,
along dimensions such as fairness, consent, or privacy.
I have worked on auditing data collection practices and demonstrating how
relying on external machine learning models can contribute to discriminatory behavior
in downstream models. Through my research, I have interned on the Responsible AI research
teams at Amazon and Meta FAIR, and
I am grateful to be supported by the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
Before joining UW, I worked as an engineer at TeachFX, a startup
that uses voice AI to help teachers reflect on their practice. My undergraduate degree was in Computer Science
at Harvard University, where I had the amazing opportunity to work on algorithmic fairness
with Professors Cynthia Dwork and Pragya Sur.
