Current field of Study

I work at the intersection of computing, the social sciences, and the humanities. On the one hand this means that I develop digital tools that help humanists and social scientists teach more effectively. On the other hand it means that I use the framework of the humanities and the social sciences to shed light on the culture of computing and how computing, in turn, is shaping American culture.
