My work lies at the intersection of technology and the solidarity economy. I’m passionate about strengthening the digital commons, in which people control and steward communication technologies as collective goods.

I’m interested in how digital commoning is made possible through cooperative ownership, decentralized technologies, and governance structures that allow strong patterns of communication and constructive feedback loops.

I’ve been involved with Internet Archive’s work in organizing conversations, resources, and events surrounding the decentralized web (DWeb) since spring 2019. DWeb focuses on decentralizing power and ownership at all layers of the network stack. I am one of the original stewards of the DWeb Principles.

I’m a co-founder and editor of COMPOST, an online magazine about the digital commons, and project manager of Distributed.Press, projects hosted by Hypha Worker Co-operative. I’m also a Digital Commons Fellow with Commons Network.

My former projects and employers include the Oakland Public Library, Public Citizen, Shareable, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
