I am a Project Coordinator at Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society, where I research access to information issues and manage the OpenNet Initiative and the Digital Public Library of America planning initiative. I contributed to Berkman’s review of transparency and accountability in ICANN and am involved with a number of other Berkman projects, including Blogging Common.

I previously co-directed the Technology for Transparency Network, which documents and maps projects that use online technology to promote transparency and accountability in the public and private sectors. The network is part of the Global Voices Online community, where I help cover the Ugandan blogosphere.

In 2010 I graduated from the Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA), where I studied the relationship between communications technology and development as an Anna Lord Strauss fellow. I also helped teach SIPA’s introductory quantitative analysis class and co-edited the school’s student-run news site, The Morningside Post.

I’ve previously lived and worked in Uganda, where I made friends with a bunch of bloggers and co-developed and directed a series of conferences on post-conflict development for American and Ugandan college students and young professionals, and in Kansas, where I was a web producer for the Lawrence Journal-World.
