My research seeks to foster inclusion in the tools and practices that experts—such as doctors and engineers—use to make decisions about people’s lives. I am currently investigating: (a) the uneven representation of transgender people in digital infrastructures, and (b) ways to help epilepsy patients understand data generated by medical devices. My work advances the fields of human-computer interaction and science & technology studies.

• Digital identity infrastructures, including identity documents and information systems, in relation to trans and gender diverse people in North America and South Asia.
• Medicine, technology, and society, with a focus on how doctors and patients navigate technologized forms of care.
• Disability studies, especially epilepsy and other chronic episodic conditions.
• Ethnographies that involve expert practitioners and marginalized people.
