Biography

I am an attorney, philosopher, entrepreneur, and author, as well as a proud parent of two lovely children with my dear partner who is a genomic scientist. I continue to study, teach, and research on issues of law, technology, and ethics. Most recently I wrote a book on Scientific Integrity which is published in Spanish in Mexico where I lived since 2014, funded by the national science foundation of Mexico, CONACyT. My current research interests include unique digital identities and digital selves.
