Hi readers,
It's great to have you on the forum! If you'd like to, write something below about yourself or how you connect with the philosophy and social movement of effective altruism.
To start us off, I'm a junior doctor from Melbourne, with a particular interest in tweaking the impact of emerging technologies so they better serve humanity.

I'm Julia. I live in Boston with my husband, Jeff Kaufman, and our daughter. I'm a social worker doing mental health work for prisoners.
Since childhood, I've been interested in richer people's obligations to poorer people. I took the Giving What We Can pledge in 2012. I'm thrilled that the EA movement is a thing, both because I'm no longer the only person I know talking about this stuff, and because other people have helped me think more clearly about it. I write the blog Giving Gladly.
