I am a recent Societal Computing PhD graduate from the Software and Societal Systems Department at Carnegie Mellon University. This fall, I am starting a postdoctoral fellowship as part of the Digital Life Initiative at Cornell Tech in NYC. I am broadly interested in examining interactions between AI and society to study how to leverage the strengths of AI while avoiding negative outcomes and impacts. Currently, my primary areas of research are:

• AI alignment
• algorithmic fairness
• music information retrieval
• participatory machine learning
• AI for social good
• ethics and evaluation of generative AI
