Excited to announce that my paper has just been accepted at The Web Conference (WWW) 2024! I analyze how users willing to engage with opposing views differ in terms of language they use and rewards they receive in their home communities. Preprint coming soon!

I’m hitting the job market looking mainly for tenure-track asst. professor positions (2024)!
My core research informs how we should curate content on online platforms — and I’m also interested in how large language models will impact on the Web in the upcoming years.
