About
I am the author of the investigative book "The Algorithm" from Hachette. I am also an Emmy-Award winning journalist, freelance reporter and journalism professor at NYU. I cover artificial intelligence and the future of work for the Wall Street Journal, the Guardian and MIT Technology Review amongst others. Formerly, I was a showrunner and reporter for the Wall Street Journal's video series Moving Upstream. My work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, MIT Technology Review, TIME, The Atlantic and many others. My investigation about student debt for VICE's flagship news magazine VICE on HBO was a 2017 finalist for the Peabody Awards. For PBS FRONTLINE, I directed and shot the Emmy-award winning documentary Outlawed in Pakistan. The film was dubbed “among the standouts” at the Sundance Film Festival. Before that, I was a multimedia reporter at The Wall Street Journal and I worked as the Director of Video Journalism at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism. Open for freelance reporting and producing opportunities. And I love snowboarding and surfing.
