I am a PhD student in Technology and Social Behavior, a joint program in computer science and communications at Northwestern University. My research, supervised by Professor Ágnes Horvát, develops network and data science approaches to understand and support sensemaking and collective decision-making in web-based systems. My previous research developed computational methods for harvesting social signals to inform collective decision-making in the implementation of comprehensive peace agreements. Funded by the U.S. Army Research Lab (ARL) and National Science Foundation (NSF), this work was a collaboration between the University of Notre Dame’s Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies and the Center for Network and Data Science (CNDS).
