I study how emerging technologies reshape international security, democratic resilience, and the institutions that govern them.

I’m an interdisciplinary researcher working at the intersection of emerging technologies, international security, and democratic resilience. Currently a Research Associate at the Center for Advanced Internet Studies, my work examines how technical systems, public policy, and international cooperation can address challenges introduced by generative Artificial Intelligence.

My work focuses on three core areas: content provenance for democratic resilience, generative AI and disinformation, and Great Power dynamics in AI governance. I combine technical evaluation with qualitative and comparative policy research to understand governance capacities for emerging technologies within the institutional and geopolitical environments they operate in.

Before research and public policy, I worked across data, consulting, and program management roles in the US. Completing a Master’s in Public Policy at the Hertie School in Berlin, Germany integrated my experiences across impact and technical fields into a focus on digital governance.

Across my work, I have been motivated by a central question: How can societies govern emerging technologies when their impacts go beyond political borders? My long-term goal is to connect academic research to the practical needs of governments, international organizations, and other institutions navigating governance questions through technological change.
