Time for a new #introduction post! I am a #linguist working as a data scientist in #tech, focusing on all things #HCOMP.
I have a #PhD in #linguistics from MIT and I spent several years in the academic precariat. I am passionate about #mentoring, especially illuminating diverse career paths for academics. I am currently also the chair of the Linguistic Society of America's Committee on Gender Equity in Linguistics.
And I have two #cats, Bugsy and Doobie!
Now, enjoying the amazing keynote from @jeffbigham at HCOMP.
Jeff presented our research on tools to measure the digital labor conditions of crowdworkers (e.g.,hourly wages) to then fight for change!

I organized HCOMP's Crowd Camp with @AnhongGuo!
We had:
👷 Panel with crowdworkers
📚 Bootcamp from Toloka on how to create crowd powered systems.
📌This fantastic Google Colab helps you start programming your own tools for workers:
