About Me
I am a sixth year PhD candidate at UC San Diego in the CSE department, advised by Kristen Vaccaro, and I am currently on the job market! In my research, I identify shortcomings in privacy communication and develop explanations and tools to help people deepen their understanding of privacy. In addition to my research, I am also passionate about teaching.
