I am an AI ethicist, socio-political philosopher, and feminist scholar dedicated to aligning sociotechnical systems with justice, equity, and democratic values. With a background in philosophy, gender studies, and life science, I combine normative inquiry, structural analysis, and scientific literacy to tackle complex sociotechnical challenges.
My work on AI ethics and governance bridges conceptual critique and actionable interventions, grounded in my experience as a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Connecticut (UConn) and an Interdisciplinary Ethics Fellow at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) and the McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society. Currently, alongside an ongoing affiliation as an Associate Research Scholar at UConn, I extend my work across civil society and international policy—investigating community-driven projects on emerging technologies with AImpower and evaluating global AI policy frameworks with the Center for AI and Digital Policy (CAIDP).
My scholarship investigates core questions at the intersection of structural injustice, emerging technologies, and democratic participation. I have authored award-winning, peer-reviewed research across venues including ACM FAccT, AIES, Philosophy & Technology, Minds and Machines, Hypatia, and Feminist Philosophy Quarterly. I actively review for leading conferences and journals, including serving as an Area Chair for NeurIPS.
Beyond research, I lead strategic educational and coalition-building initiatives. I have secured competitive grants to design tech and business ethics curricula for diverse cohorts, directed cross-sector convenings on technology and democracy, and founded an international mentorship initiative for underrepresented scholars.
Whether analyzing the social impacts of emerging technologies, spearheading educational programs, or convening cross-sector coalitions, I bring analytical depth, operational clarity, and cross-disciplinary fluency to collaborative teams.
