I am interested in the ways in which emerging, data and non-data driven Artificial Intelligence models and systems create and assume performative, semiotic, and epistemic roles in society. From there, I am concerned with the ways in which such roles question and force us to re-examine our relationships with each other, greater society, and our selves. 

Key Scenes: Investment pitches, government initiatives, and workplace automation.

Key Themes: Surveillance, epistemology, and societal discontent with the human condition.

Prior to joining Stanford, I received a master's degree in social sciences at the University of Chicago and a bachelor's degree in computer science at Brown University.
