Supervision

I have supervised a range of MA, PhD, and postdoctoral research projects. These projects broadly span the areas of digital intimacy, gender, and sexuality as well as the role of digital technologies and media in everyday life. If you are interested in working with me, please contact me through my Concordia email address early in your application planning with an outline of your research idea and how it relates to these areas. Please understand that I may not have the capacity to supervise more projects at this time.

Guest Lectures and Workshops

I have given keynotes, guest lectures, and workshops on a range of topics including digital research methods, app studies, the walkthrough method, digital gender and sexuality studies, identity and digital self-presentation, the platformization of identity and algorithmic shaping of the self, technological appropriation and resistance, microcelebrity and sexual self-branding, dating apps, and much more! If you would like me to give a talk, please email me through my Concordia email address.
