William is a junior at the University of Connecticut with a focus on history and political science. He has long been interested in international relations and technology policy, particularly relating to privacy. In the past, he has done research relating to social credit and facial recognition systems in China, as well as the ways in which misinformation spreads online. Reading the news over the years and learning more about these issues led him to realize the ways in which technology policy can impact people without their knowledge. William believes it is important for people to know more about these issues, as technology policy can have far-reaching consequences that are often hard to find out about. He was drawn to ACE by the opportunity to help people become more informed on the issues that affect them. William is excited to expand his knowledge of technology policy while helping educate others on the subject. Outside of school, he likes music, video games, and animals.
