i study how intelligent systems land in the world, and how we might govern them before they govern us.
|
i'm currently based in tiohtià:ke / montreal, working across research, product, and governance.
watching institutions try to keep up with capabilities. re-readingerta ale's work on technological sovereignty. sitting with the question of what it means to build responsibly when the ground keeps shifting.
i move between research, product, and policy, often all at once. here's where i'm putting my attention:
product owner shaping ai-powered nonprofit tools. semantic search, relevance scoring, prompt architecture.
graduate fellow exploring how ai governance frameworks actually land in practice: the gap between policy and implementation.
founding lead for mena. building regional capacity for ai safety research and cross-cultural governance dialogue.
scientific advisor working on intersectional approaches to ai development and deployment.
my research lives at the intersection of computational social science, human-ai interaction, and governance. i care about mechanisms, not just principles.
mixed. computational modeling, qualitative fieldwork, policy analysis, user studies. whatever the question demands.
work in progress. experiments, notes, things i'm making sense of in public.
this section is alive. things appear, evolve, sometimes disappear.
research partnerships, co-authoring, cross-institutional projects
