Press & Media

Selected media coverage and interviews

My research on children's privacy, EdTech, online tracking, cybersecurity, and AI governance has been featured in national and education-focused media outlets. This coverage has focused primarily on how schools and technology platforms collect, use, and secure student data, and what accountability should look like when those systems fail.

For media inquiries, interview requests, or background conversations related to children's privacy, AI safety for youth, educational technology, or privacy policy, please get in touch.

Working on children's privacy, AI safety for youth, AI and data governance, or usable privacy more broadly? I am finishing my PhD in spring 2027 and am open to research, policy, and government roles where this work is directly applicable.
