I am a postdoctoral fellow at Yale University, where my research looks at social media, telecommunications, political communication, and changes in global media. I am especially interested in how people use mobile phones in different parts of the world.
At Yale Law School, I have taught Intelligence Gathering and International Law and Social Theories of the Information Society. During my PhD years at Columbia, I taught or was a teaching assistant for Mobile Revolutions: Markets, Politics and Journalism, Freedom of Speech and the Press, Urban Politics, History of American Cities, Business of Journalism, and Ethics of Journalism.
I also worked for several years as a tutor at Columbia’s Writing Center, focusing on international and ESL students. Before I started my PhD, I taught courses in International Relations and Economics at the Tecnológico de Monterrey in Mexico.
Originally from Canada, I have lived in a few other places around the world: Australia, Taiwan, Mexico, the United Kingdom, India, and now the United States.
