Hello!

I’m currently a Program Manager on Facebook’s Open Research & Transparency team, working on enabling legitimate, privacy preserved social science research using Facebook data. Most notably, I’m part of the team leading the largest ever industry-academic collaboration to study the causal impact of Facebook and Instagram on the U.S. 2020 Presidential Elections (click to learn more!). Holding platforms accountable through transparent and accessible research is important to me!

Before that …

• I was 1 of 18 Americans selected as a 2019-2020 Henry Luce Scholar. I spent my year in Jakarta, Indonesia studying Bahasa Indonesia and working at the UN Global Pulse Lab Jakarta.

• I graduated from NYU Abu Dhabi with a B.A. in Social Research and Public Policy, and a concentration in Interactive Media and Technology.

• My senior capstone project was titled “Tweets as Tools for Propaganda: The Case of the Internet Research Agency Twitter Propaganda in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election.” (ask me to read it!)

• I served as the President of Women Empowered in STEM at NYUAD. I am most proud of the annual high school conference we organized for girls in Abu Dhabi!

• I interned with two Venture For America companies in New Orleans and Detroit in the summers of my sophomore and junior year.
