Research Interests:

My research lies at the intersection of IT Identity, Green Information Systems (Green IS), AI Governance, and Cybersecurity, 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. I am particularly interested in how a strong IT identity can act as a psychological driver for ethical decision-making, cybersecurity awareness, and responsible engagement with emerging AI systems.

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. Within the broader framework of AI Governance, I examine how organizations operationalize policies, standards, and compliance mechanisms to ensure that AI systems are aligned with human values, fairness, and accountability. My work bridges behavioral and institutional perspectives, highlighting how identity-driven engagement and governance structures influence responsible technology outcomes.

Cybersecurity represents a natural extension of this agenda, as protecting digital infrastructures and data integrity is foundational to trustworthy AI and sustainable information systems. My research examines how IT identity influences security behaviors and how governance mechanisms can strengthen organizational resilience in the face of emerging cyber and AI-related risks.

By integrating these domains, my research contributes to a holistic understanding of how technology, governance, and identity intersect to build secure, ethical, and human-centered digital ecosystems.
