I kind of struggle with describing what I do (there's quite a bit), but I had a go:
---
I am a product and program and people manager with a proven track record in building product and program teams in mission-driven organizations. I also am an AI ethicist and researcher who is interested in collaborating on anything that moves the needle on AI and its impact on the world.
My interests and expertise center entirely on the question, 'what happens to people when computers happen to them?' Some selected recent published work: (1) a report for the Department of Defense on the challenges and risks of using LLMs in clinical / medical settings (Dec 2024) (2) a report co-authored with Humane Intelligence and IMDA on how 2024 LLMs manifest bias outside of a Western perspective, specifically in 9 different Asia Pacific countries and in their languages (Feb 2025, launched at the Paris AI Safety Summit).
I have been a startup founder, early stage startup employee, open source contributor, public servant, and more. I currently lead the product management team at Monterey Bay Aquarium, advise Humane Intelligence on algorithmic red-teaming, sit on the GSA Acquisition Policy Federal Advisory AI Committee (DOGE-d), and work as a research team member with the Center for AI & Digital Policy on California legislation and policy.
I am writing a book about product management in government and non-profit, coming soon.
