Hi! I research the online platforms and personalization. I am
interested in understanding how social media platforms shape our
beliefs—specifically the content curation algorithms, online
communities and moderation strategies within.
Currently, I am working as a research associate at the PSAL lab
at NYU Tandon advised by Dr. Rachel Greenstadt. Otherwise, I am a final year as a PhD student at The University of Iowa in Computer Science advised by Dr. Rishab Nithyanand; working in the SPARTA lab and a member of Algorithms and Culture Research Group.
