I am a 5th-year Ph.D. student at Rochester Institute of Technology advised by Dr. Matthew Wright. I am currently a part of the DeFake Project. I held a B.S. degree in Mathematics and Economics from Georgetown University.
My research lies at the intersection of digital media forensics and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), aiming to bridge technical detection methods with how people interpret, trust, and act on their outputs. I study explainability, terminology, and communication in media forensics, with a focus on ensuring that authenticity assessments are meaningful and usable in real-world contexts.
