My course encourages students to think about how they might study or design technologies with a focus on UN Sustainable Development Goals objectives, paying special attention to the needs of underserved, under-resourced, and under-represented communities across the world.

My research investigates emerging technological practices in underserved contexts to design appropriate interventions for developing community resilience. Central to my work are themes of access, equity, and participation in technological engagements that I use ethnographic methods to examine. I leverage these findings towards information-centric mobile technology interventions for the resilience of underserved communities in India, Bangladesh, Cuba, Pakistan, and other countries
