I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Media, Technology and Society program, part of the School of Communication at Northwestern University. I study new media and political communication with a focus on selective exposure. I have experience in qualitative (interviewing, participant observation) and quantitative research (surveys, text analysis, network analysis, basic statistics) with a focus on joining these approaches to answer research questions.

My dissertation is an in-depth analysis of how and why news consumers filter media content and the role of digital technologies in the information selection process. For more information on my dissertation project and how to become a potential participant click here. See research for an overview of my past and present work.
