I am a journalist with more than ten years of experience leading innovative, award-winning newsroom teams. I specialize in technology and the ways it affects people’s lives and rights.

My writing has appeared in The New York Times, Coda Story, The Guardian, SlateTech Policy Press, Global Voices, and Americas Quarterly. Stories I’ve edited have won recognition from the Society of Professional Journalists, the Fetisov Journalism Awards, and the Orwell Foundation among others. I am on the board of directors of Monument Lab and I serve on the advisory council of the Open Technology Fund. I currently work with Meedan and occasionally commission and edit stories for Hyphen. I am co-authoring a book on how we can better hold AI systems accountable to the public interest, which is under contract with MIT Press.

I am a former fellow at Harvard University’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society and an alumna of the University of Chicago’s Harris School. From 2014-2019, I ran the Advox project at Global Voices, an international media organization of bloggers, journalists and activists from more than 170 countries. From 2022-2024, I was senior and then managing editor at Coda Story. I’ve also worked with Ranking Digital Rights at New America, the Citizens and Technology Lab at Cornell University, and the Center for Democracy & Technology.

I don’t do much blogging these days, but I occasionally pipe up on BlueSky and LinkedIn. In real life, you can usually find me in Philadelphia.
