About

I am a Political Economy doctoral candidate at the University of Oxford and a Researcher at Google DeepMind, specializing in AI economic impacts.

​

My academic work specializes in artificial intelligence policy, the economic impacts of technological shocks, inequality, and worker training programs. For instance, I am currently studying labor upskilling amid AI and the question of 'who can be retrained' in an age of digitally-enabled automation and occupation substitution. This work is supervised by Ben Ansell and David Rueda. 

​

As a researcher at Google DeepMind, I help drive AI policy research, with particular areas of focus including economic impacts, national security, and governance. 

 

Prior to my role at Google DeepMind, I worked at the personal office of Barack and Michelle Obama, The Brookings Institution, and the Centre for the Governance of AI. My writing and research—much of which is captured on this website—has previously been featured in the New York Times, Financial Times, Vox, Politico, Bloomberg, and Jacobin.

Prior to joining Oxford, I received my MSc in Political Science and Political Economy as a Fulbright Scholar at the London School of Economics. And I received my BA in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics from Brown University.
