My work examines the problems created by the exponential creation and sharing of information, especially personal information. As our lives become increasingly digital, we create, share, and leave information nearly everywhere, both deliberately and inadvertently. What are the long term implications in a world where nearly every aspect of our lives is recorded or documented in some way? These questions inform my research.

I’m a Non-Resident Fellow at the Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School, where I occasionally post to the CIS blog.
