Personal profile

Personal profile

My work explores how members of environmental social movements navigate information security. Rather than prioritising technological solutions, I study the social first -- building our understanding of security *from the ground up*. My ultimate aim is to understand secure systems through the lived experiences of those who explicitly rely on them. I hold an MSc from Oxford University and an BA from McGill University, and have worked in both academic and private social research.
