My work
In my work, I focus on the intersection of news, tech and democracy. My goal is to use frontier technologies to spread facts and credible reporting, safeguard elections, improve media literacy, and fight misinformation and hate speech.
As a John S. Knight fellow at Stanford, I am especially interested in the dawning age of generative artificial intelligence and exploring ideas on how to best prepare for the technology's impacts on news, media and democracy.
Before coming to the United States, I founded and led the social media team at Austria's largest newsroom. I pioneered strategies for news on TikTok, Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook, as well as leading a series of innovative projects focused on digital storytelling, audience engagement, trust in media and transparency.
