Welcome to my website! I'm a computer scientist and researcher focused on machine learning (ML) and ethics-informed AI development in tech. My main areas of study have been natural language processing, natural language generation, assistive technology, and AI ethics. In 2023, I was recognized as one of TIME's Most Influential People. I currently work at Hugging Face as a researcher and Chief Ethics Scientist, driving forward work on ML data processing, responsible AI development, and AI ethics. I previously worked at Google AI as a Staff Research Scientist, where I founded and co-led Google's Ethical AI group to advance foundational AI ethics research and operationalize AI ethics Google-internally. Before joining Google, I was a researcher at Microsoft Research, focused on computer vision-to-language generation; and was a postdoc at Johns Hopkins, focused on Bayesian modeling and information extraction in natural language processing (NLP). I am a co-founder of WiNLP and have spearheaded a number of workshops and initiatives at the intersections of diversity, inclusion, computer science, and ethics. My work has received awards from Secretary of Defense Ash Carter and the American Foundation for the Blind, and has been implemented by multiple technology companies. I am most known for work pioneering "Model Cards" for ML model reporting; developing "Seeing AI" to assist blind and low-vision individuals; "Stochastic Parrots"; and developing methods to mitigate unwanted AI biases.
