I am a computer scientist on the Core Data Science team at Facebook, and my research lies at the intersection of data science and human-computer interaction. My current interests include cascading behavior in social networks, psychological well-being, and online antisocial behavior. My work has received a best paper award, as well as several best paper nominations at CHI, CSCW, ICWSM and WWW. I earned my PhD in computer science at Stanford University.
