Bio
My new page is HERE. As of February 2023, I joined Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy as a postdoc!My doctoral work aimed at understanding what it means for decisions and algorithms to be equitable with a focus on ranking applications under the supervision of Gianmaria Silvello and Gian Antonio Susto. I also visited Asia Biega at MPI-SP.
I am passionate about developing responsible technology. When designing an algorithm, I try to think of all stakeholders and be careful what I optimize for.
Before academia I spent four years working with IBM and Electrolux. Colleagues were great, industry was interesting, salary was higher!
