Myraeka d'Leeuwen

I am a PhD student in philosophy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where I am advised by Tom Dougherty, Kathleen A. Creel, Alex Worsnip, and Luc Bovens. My research is on normative ethics and the ethics of technology. Before coming to UNC, I earned a BS in computer science and philosophy at Northeastern University.

My dissertation is about the role of privacy in interpersonal relationships and social life. Some of my other current projects include a paper on algorithmic fairness and a paper on methods for improving the transparency of neural networks.

Outside of philosophy, I enjoy running slow half marathons, doing the NYT crossword, and watching my cat sit on the back porch.

My name is pronounced Muh-rae-kuh Duh-lay-win.
