RESEARCH INTEREST
My research explores the socio-political implications of journalistic/ algorithmic(AI)/social/personal curations in the digital sphere.
Utilizing inferential network analysis and computational methods with digital trace data, I aim to understand how algorithmic(AI) and human-based curations shape political discourses and social interactions.
My work has appeared in journals such as the Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication, Human Communication Research, New Media & Society, and Digital Journalism.
