Sobre mí

I studied Modern Culture & Media at Brown University and interned at Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet & Society. I began editing Wikipedia in 2005 and attend my first Wikimedia event at the British Museum in 2011.

As a Master's student at the University of Cambridge, I completed the first academic study of Instagram, focusing on what motivates public creativity on digital networks. From 2011 to 2015, I worked in social media marketing in New York City and played a lot of soccer.

I love Arsenal FC, coffee, whiskey, and block-printing. Since moving to California, I've become a dedicated open water swimmer, rower, and surfer.
