Short Bio

I’ve always been fascinated by the relationship between people and technology—how the tools we create, in turn, shape the world we live in. My research sits at this intersection, exploring how artificial intelligence (AI) and inclusivity converge, particularly in the context of the Global Majority. I’m interested in how AI technologies are adopted, interpreted, and sometimes resisted in communities whose stories and values are often left out of global tech narratives.

Over the years, this curiosity has taken me across continents and conversations. I’ve been invited to speak and facilitate gatherings that bring together technologists, activists, and policymakers to imagine more equitable digital futures. Whether I’m on stage or in small workshops, I focus on one question: What would responsible AI look like if it truly reflected the diversity of human experience?

My writing and commentary have appeared in The Guardian, Al Jazeera, Coda Story, Fast Company, and other international publications. I studied Communications and Technology at the University of Alberta, Canada—a journey that deepened my understanding of how media, society, and innovation intersect.

Today, I work as a Program Officer with Mozilla’s Responsible Computing Program, where I lead a global strategy to bring responsible AI literacy, skills, and advocacy to students and emerging technologists. Our programs span the United States, Kenya, India, South Africa, and Ghana—creating spaces where young people can learn to build AI systems that are ethical, transparent, and inclusive.

Also, I am part of Partnership on AI‘s international advisory council, alongside highly respected, interdisciplinary researchers and subject-matter experts from around the world. The Council acts as an internal advisor, ensuring PAI’s work meets the highest standards of independence and rigor while remaining attentive to external and emerging trends.

At the heart of all my work is a simple belief: technology should expand our collective humanity, not narrow it.
