Hello!

I am a Ph.D. student at the University of Washington, based in the Center for an Informed Public and the Social Computing and Algorithmic Experiences Lab. I am advised by Dr. Emma Spiro and Dr. Tanu Mitra. I research user engagement with rumors, conspiracy theories, and interventions across online platforms. I draw on human-computer interaction and data science techniques informed by social science to empirically measure and experimentally mitigate problematic interactions. My work aims to contribute to online trust and safety by aiding user disengagement from and resilience against rumors and conspiracy theories while minimizing harms.
