Hello, I’m Rebecca!
I am an interdisciplinary computer scientist working to advance accessibility and self-governance of AI and language technologies. My research interests include multilingual NLP, data sovereignty, and AI governance. I am the incoming Technology for Liberty Fellow at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Massachusetts.
I hold an M.S. in Computer Science from UCLA, where I was advised by Dr. Nanyun Peng as a Google Deepmind Fellow. I hold a B.S.H. in Computer Science where I was advised by Christopher Manning, with minors in Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity and Dance from Stanford.
Beyond this work, I write poems about borders and dance flamenco in my hometown of Albuquerque.
