Hi.

I'm Ayesha.

I'm a New York attorney with a Masters degree in Computer Science. I am passionate about the intersection of technology and law, and advocate for smart policies that support innovation and the advancement of our well-being.

During my degree I pursued a dissertation in applied machine learning, building a stacked Convolutional Neural Network that predicted the outcome of legal cases.

I then worked as an engineer at a tech consultancy firm serving their financial services clients before moving into the world of policy with a US-based think tank, where I lead up tech policy work in the UK and Brussels.

I enjoy discussing AI, Open Source, Digital Rights, and Copyright.

Investing time and effort with Ayesha will not go unrewarded."
