I am a second-year Ph.D. student working with Dr. Brooke Foucault Welles. My general research interests lie in online communication, computational social science, and race and technology. More specifically, I study the collective and communicative practices on social media and how these acts uphold or challenge the dominant narratives, power hierarchies, and hegemonic ideologies, with a specific focus on race and ethnicity. My most recent projects include the investigation of DNA test results discussions online, subversive humor and neologism creation in an Asian online community, and the self-disclosure of experiences of racism online.

I earned my Master's degree in Information Science at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Before joining the lab, I was a data scientist at the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University, where I was the primary contributor to the Racial Data Tracker project. In my free time, I am an avid concert-goer, vinyl collector, home cook/baker, and tarot card reader. You can learn more about me on my personal website.
