Hi all! I just graduated with a master's in public policy and as a Gleitsman Fellow from Harvard University. I am moving to DC and exploring work in biosecurity and AI security policy, especially policy work that examines their intersection. 

I have worked at Council on Foreign Relations for Global Health and Nuclear Threat Initiative on biosecurity. I was also a Fellow at Cambridge Existential Risk Institute and Swiss Existential Risk Institute. 

I graduated with undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in International Policy from the London School of Economics. I have interests in catastrophic biological risks, global governance, AI, and international security. I have published co-authored work in Foreign Affairs, the Lancet, the UN, and other platforms. 

Find work! My long-term goal is to work with the US government on these issues, but currently, as a Pakistani citizen, it is hard to find meaningful work in the emerging technology and security space that does not have clearance/citizenship restrictions. Would really appreciate folks' advice on where to end up next and move towards my long-term goal. 

I can help the others in the areas of: 1. Advocacy and communication: I have a background in activism, public speaking and public interviewing. I have also organized public-facing conferences on x-risk. 2. Global health governance: I have work experience in working on both natural and engineered pandemics, their political/legal ramifications, and global health governance.
