Hilary Ross is the project manager for the Assembly: Disinformation Program.
She leads the Assembly: Disinformation team, manages Assembly Fellowship and Student Fellowship recruitment and selection, develops programming, and coordinates program partnerships. Hilary holds an MA from the Fletcher School at Tufts University, where she focused on technology policy and international communication. Her master’s research analyzed potential communications regulatory models to limit the spread of false news on digital platforms.
Prior to joining the Berkman Klein Center, Hilary worked in communications at a think tank in DC, managed a program at a non-profit in Boston, taught as a Fulbright Fellow in Vietnam, and was a 2017 State of the Net Fellow. She loves working on Assembly, combining her experience and interest in tech policy, program management, and education.
Hilary is interested in how to counter disinformation, the future of news, governance of speech online, and privacy policy. Ask her about her most recent favorite podcast or detective show – she spends too much time consuming both.
