Natalie Grace Brigham

My name is Natalie, but most people call me by my middle name, Grace :) I am a first year PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Washington (go dawgs!), where I am advised by Yoshi Kohno. I'm interested in understanding and mitigating sociotechnical harms of emerging technologies, particularly AI.
