I am a senior researcher at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI). My work focuses on human-computer interaction and networked systems applied to societal problems. Much of my previous work is in the area of information and communication technologies for development (ICTD). More recently I've been focusing on designing pluralistic networked systems (e.g. Timbre and Stencil) and sustainability.

My recent papers include:
