My research interests lie at the intersection of Computer Science (specifically AI and theory) and Economics, spanning areas such as computational social choice and algorithmic fairness. Broadly, one thread of my research explores how to aggregate individual preferences into collective decisions, with applications ranging from democratic systems (such as citizens' assemblies) to AI alignment (such as RLHF). Another thread focuses on algorithmic fairness in AI systems, drawing on multidisciplinary ideas with applications ranging from clustering to peer review.
