about me

They/Them. I'm currently a PhD student in the Security and Privacy Lab at University of Washington's Computer Science School. I am advised by Franziska Roesner.

I am broadly interested in user interactions with misinformation, usable privacy and security, understanding privacy practices and concerns of marginalized communities, as well as designing for privacy in the age of Internet-of-Things.
