About me

I'm the Drew Houston (2005) Career Development Professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management (in the Information Technology group) and department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. I was a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard Center for Research on Computation and Society (CRCS), and before that, I completed my PhD at the Computer Science department at Cornell University. I received my B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley. You can find my CV here.

My primary interests lie in the application of computational techniques to domains of social concern, including online platforms, algorithmic fairness/discrimination, and behavioral economics. I'm a member of Cornell's Artificial Intelligence, Policy, and Practice initiative. I'm also on the International Advisory Board of Sai University in Chennai. I coach the Harvard Men's Soccer Club.
