Speaking
I bring over a decade of experience at the intersection of civil rights, technology, and policy, translating complex issues into actionable insights for diverse audiences.
Why the myth of technological neutrality obscures real choices and real harms. A look at how design decisions encode values, whether we acknowledge it or not.
How to embed civil rights considerations into product development from day one, not after harm has already been amplified.
Examining how AI systems perpetuate and create new forms of discrimination, and what responsible development actually looks like.
Policy and law matter, but systems don't change until stories do. How narrative and coalition work complement regulatory approaches.
The journey from civil rights law to product feature, and why legal expertise alone isn't enough to ensure equitable technology.
Practical frameworks for organizations navigating AI development while maintaining commitment to civil rights principles.
I'm not interested in being a panel filler. I'm interested in conversations that change how people think and ultimately act on technology and civil rights.
My talks draw from real experience: building anti-discrimination systems at Airbnb, leading civil rights product work at Meta, advising the Obama Administration, and chairing the Digital Civil Rights Coalition.
I speak to technical and non-technical audiences alike, translating complex issues into frameworks that attendees can actually use.
Panel discussions on gender equity and technology
Reflections on gender inclusion and tech leadership
Technology and civil rights in the Caribbean region
Legal convenings on digital civil rights
“Building products that shape our world is not a spectator sport.”
