alt: Me with some cows saying hello in the background.

I’m a PhD student in the Security and Privacy Research Lab at the University of Washington, where I am lucky to be advised by Franziska Roesner.

My research interests center around technology’s impact (especially harms) in societal power dynamics e.g. surveillance, data collection/tracking, censorship, deceptive design, etc. I’m currently working on projects related to police and prison technology, and deceptive monetization strategies in technology used by kids.

I was born and raised in Montana.
