I am a social scientist and media and communication law and policy researcher who uses qualitative, quantitative, and law research approaches to study issues at the intersection of technology and society, particularly within the context of policy for both AI (adoption, use, and effect) and broadband connections.. My research, writing, and public service are twofold:
​
1) AI, Surveillance, Privacy and the implications of ICTs; and 2) Broadband Policy and Deployment
Relying on survey, experimental, and computational methods, my research program aims to understand and clarify some of today’s most critical challenges facing democracies.
