If you're met me in the last few years, it's probably through Security Force Monitor at Columbia Law School, where I was Deputy Director until the end of 2024.
In the human rights and international criminal justice field I am a specialist in the development and use of technologies that assist investigations, store and secure information, and help communicate our findings.
I'm working on three challenges:
- Working with rights groups on ingenious ventures that have a sweetspot of technical insight and daring campaigning and investigation.
- Making new tech earn its place by rigorously testing what it can do against the things that human rights investigators and researchers actually need to do.
- Improving the commons by bringing better and more useful free information, particularly geospatial, into the public realm.
Fancy working on these together?
