Postdoctoral Fellow, Digital Society Lab, McMaster University

I am a Post-Doctoral Fellow at McMaster University's Digital Society Lab, where I research at the intersection of technology, democracy, and social change. I study emerging technology policy and focus on national AI policies and the potential democratic challenges posed by Central Bank Digital Currencies.

Until September 2022, I was a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Ethics of AI Lab, at the University of Toronto's Centre for Ethics. Before, I submitted my dissertation, about trust in technology, to The Graduate Program in Science, Technology and Society at Bar-Ilan University. My formal background is in Analytic Philosophy, Library & Information Science, and Science & Technology Studies.
