Hello!

I am a Post-Doctoral Researcher in the Computational Social Science Lab at the University of Pennsylvania, supervised by Duncan Watts. In Fall 2025, I will be joining NYU Stern as an Assistant Professor of Technology, Operations, and Statistics, as well as a research affiliate of the Center for Social Media and Politics.

I’m a computational social scientist interested in digital persuasion, misinformation, and the wisdom of crowds. I received my PhD in Marketing from MIT Sloan School of Management advised by David Rand. My research uses computational methods and real-world data to study how digital media contributes to societal problems, and how we can design scalable solutions.

Prior to my PhD, I worked as a software engineer at Meta on the News and Civic teams, and then as a research assistant at Microsoft Research with the Computational Social Science Group. Before that, I graduated from Yale in 2016 with a degree in Computer Science and Psychology. In my spare time, I enjoy pop culture trivia, yoga, and 5-star NYTimes recipes (wisdom of crowds!).
