I am a tech policy professional working on issues related to information access.
Currently, I lead policy development and research on Trust & Safety at the Center for Democracy & Technology. I work on issues related to child safety, language access, and international multistakeholder participation. Previously, I worked at Akanksha, the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival, The Toronto Youth Cabinet, the 2020 Decennial Census in the U.S., and Ranking Digital Rights. I grew up in Mumbai and Toronto and now live in D.C. I also teach arts classes at SITAR Arts Center. Please consider donating to SITAR here.
