About me

I help support a vision of more inclusive and equitable knowledge sharing. I can help answer questions related to open access, author rights, data services, AI ethics and use in the research enterprise, and the scholarly publishing landscape.

My research interests are in changing models in scholarly communication, data privacy and ethics, responsible AI, and issues related to representation within the profession.
