I'm currently researching how to govern AI-driven explosive technological growth via a summer research fellowship with Pivotal Research.

Previously, I worked on executive support and events at the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA). I also scaled up the EA Opportunity Board, interned at Global Challenges Project, and founded the EA student group at University of Wisconsin–Madison, where I studied Neurobiology and Psychology. 

If you think we share an interest (we probably do!), don't hesitate to reach out :)
