Abi Olvera is the Bulletin‘s disruptive technologies editorial fellow. She is a Council on Strategic Risks Senior Fellow, specializing in systemic risks across AI, biosecurity, and cybersecurity. With roles focusing on China, Egypt, and Senegal at the Department of State, she has focused on emerging technologies, macroeconomic stability, and international coordination. As a board member of Rethink Priorities and an affiliate with the Institute for AI Policy and Strategy, Olvera advances research on AI and existential risk. Her TEDx talk and publications highlight the need for policy reforms to combat systemic inequities and enhance government accountability. She is the author of Underdog’s Guide to Scholarships, the first aid book specifically for U.S. low-income students.

Chloe Shrager is the Bulletin‘s nuclear risk editorial fellow.  She is a soon-to-be graduate of Stanford University, where she is finishing her B.A. in Political Science with a focus on nuclear weapons policy, human rights, and journalism. She has previously worked at the San Francisco Chronicle as a Breaking News reporting intern and has been published in Inkstick Media for her investigation into the nuclear legacy of the Marshall Islands. Second only to her passion for nuclear journalism is Chloe’s love for outdoor education. In her free time, you’ll find her working as a seasonal ski coach in Lake Tahoe, leading overnight backpacking trips through Stanford’s Outdoors Center, playing winger for the Stanford Women’s Rugby Team, or just camping with friends!
