I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Information Science within the College of Computing and Informatics (CCI) at Drexel Univeristy. I conduct sociotechnical research and write about people's experiences of "being users."  Lately, I focus on affective and existentialist approaches to privacy and infrastructure, the ontology of the self, and the interdisciplinary edges of computing.

Prior to joining Drexel CCI, I was: a senior fellow in the Faculty of Media at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar; a postdoc in ComArtSci at MSU; and a postdoc in SICE at IUB.

I earned my PhD in Information and Computer Science from University of California, Irvine (UCI) in 2019, where I worked with Geof Bowker (chair), Peter Krapp, Simon Penny, and Tess Tanenbaum.  I also hold an MLIS from University of Pittsburgh, an MSc in Research Methods in the Psychology of Music from Keele University (UK), and a BA in Psychology from Kenyon College.
