I am an Assistant Professor of Communication at the University of Texas at San Antonio. In addition, I currently serve as the Associate Director of the Networked Mobilities Research Lab (NC State University). My research critically examines users experiences with digitally networked technologies, particularly in diverse cultural / global contexts. Right now, I'm researching and writing about: the use of edge computing infrastructures for VR/AR, the production of hybrid play / art, and experiences of intimacy in virtual reality.

PORTFOLIO

In this podcast series, my co-host Adriana de Souza e Silva and I will be bringing in scholars and other professionals, who study various aspects of networked mobilities. We will be addressing various social, political and cultural issues that arise when we live and move around in a world interconnected by mobile technologies and the infrastructures that support them. Our podcast series will explore how people move through the world, what shapes their movement, why people might have different experiences of mobility, and how moving around in a networked world shapes sociability, the self, and the spaces we inhabit.
