About
Academic Background
& Research Interests
My research lies at the intersection of IT Identity, Green Information Systems (Green IS), AI Governance, with a focus on understanding how individuals and organizations develop digital self-concepts that promote responsible, ethical, and secure technology use. IT Identity—the extent to which individuals define themselves through their interaction with information technologies—offers a compelling lens to explore how personal and collective values align with digital innovation and governance practices.
Building on this, my research in Green IS investigates how the design and implementation of information systems can support environmental goals, reduce organizational carbon footprints, and foster ecological consciousness among users. I explore how individual IT identities shape the adoption and meaningful use of Green IS, and how these systems, in turn, reinforce secure, transparent, and ethically governed digital practices.
