I do academic research in computer science (cryptography/security) and related law and policy issues. Starting in Fall 2021, I will be a postdoctoral fellow at Cornell Tech’s Digital Life Initiative, hosted by Helen Nissenbaum.

I recently completed my J.D. at Harvard Law School. Before studying law, I completed my Ph.D. in computer science at MIT, advised by Shafi Goldwasser. During my Ph.D. studies, I was in the Cryptography and Information Security group within the Theory of Computation group at MIT, and also affiliated with MIT’s Internet Policy Research Initiative and with the Digital Currency Initiative (DCI) at the MIT Media Lab. Between 2017–20, I was a Fellow and then an Affiliate at the Berkman-Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University, and between 2018–20 I also did postdoctoral research at the MIT Media Lab’s DCI. I received my B.A. in Computer Science at the University of Cambridge.
