Bio
I am currently a visiting professor at Rutgers University, and a professor at The IT University of Copenhagen. I have been at ITU since 2016; before that I was a visiting professor at Cornell Tech for two years. I was an Associate Professor at Stockholm University from 2012-2015 and a research scientist at UC San Diego from 2007 to 2011.
Research
My research focuses on human-centered AI, particularly relating to privacy perceptions in AI facilitated socio-technical systems. I use qualitative and mixed methods to study human interaction and practices around AI technologies, in particular location-based technologies, in order to provide a better understanding of how to design privacy sensitive social AI technologies.
