I am a Postdoctoral Fellow with the ERC-funded DigitalValues project directed by Limor Shifman at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Before that, I received my PhD from the Department of Communication at the University of Colorado Boulder where I was advised by Ted Striphas and Peter Simonson.

Broadly, my research examines the construction and contestation of values on digital platforms. As a critical humanist that collaborates with social and information scientists, I work with diverse types of data including discourses, interviews, surveys, archives, social media content, and algorithmic techniques, always thinking about cultural context. I am currently investigating how technologies such as ratings, rankings, reviews, engagement metrics, and recommendation systems shape notions of value and worth.

My research (CV) has been published in New Media & Society, Communication Theory, International Journal of Communication, Cultural Studies, Television & New Media, and the Proceedings of the CHI Conference on Human Factors on Computing Systems. I am also the Art Director for Cultural Studies and I make and share art on the internet, sometimes even about the internet.
