I am an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science Department at Seattle University. Before
joining SU, I obtained my Ph.D. from the Information School at the University of Washington.
My research focuses on understanding how problematic information appears and is moderated
on online platforms and then designing defenses against the problematic information by
considering human-centered insights from stakeholder groups.
I'm currently pursuing
research in the Responsible AI space with a focus on investigating algorithms for bias and
designing for trust, agency, transparency, and explainability.
Since January 2024, I have also been part of OpenAI's Red Teaming Network, participating in efforts to assess the risks and safety profiles of OpenAI's models and systems.
