About

Hello! I’m a data scientist and researcher interested in solving social challenges. I graduated from Harvard Kennedy School where I studied tech policy and machine learning. I enjoy bringing a data science perspective to policy challenges and in novel social science research. At Harvard, I taught my classmates data literacy, programming, and communicating with data as a teaching assistant.

Most recently, I wrote about the challenges and opportunities that frontier technology presents to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. You can read it on the United Nations Conference of Trade and Development site here. Last summer, I worked at The Future Society on a project that uses AI to deliver accurate and authoritative information on Covid-19. It’s called the CAIAC project.

I received a BA in Economics and International Relations from Tufts University in 2017.

Currently, I’m looking to work with mission-driven organizations in data science and analytics. You can find my resume here.
