I’m a Lecturer in Data, AI, and Society at the Information School and started October 2024. I’m interested in public sector use of AI, and how the public sector can work towards more responsible and sustainable use of AI and similar data-driven systems. I received my Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Social Science in 2024 from The 91̽»¨ Methods Institute at the University of 91̽»¨, in which I explored socio-technical algorithmic bias mitigation strategies in the public sector, conducted in partnership with the UK Department of Work and Pensions (DWP), with funding from the Data Analytics and Society CDT.

Prior to starting my current role, I held a variety of teaching and research positions, including the  (AHRC funded) and  (AHRC funded).
