About

Trained as a social psychologist and information scientist, I specialize in exploring the dynamic relationship between people and technology through the use of applied statistical methods. In my professional work, I use both quantitative and qualitative research methods to examine topics such as corporate velocity, employee engagement, and cultural transformation. My UC Berkeley Master's research, "Prestige and Prejudice: How the Interplay of Recruiting Work and Algorithms Reinforces Social Inequities in Software Engineering", has been published at the Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI), the world’s leading venue for Human-Computer Interaction research. With expertise in advanced statistical analysis, UX research, and survey design, I am passionate about driving impactful insights in areas like recruitment, diversity, and organizational culture.
