Report

I'm a computer science graduate student researching algorithms/interfaces that promote user agency and wellbeing. I'm excited about leveraging atproto in my research to investigate novel designs.

I also co-run Paper Skygest, a custom feed serving posts about papers on the ATmosphere, with Nikhil Garg.
