As a social scientist, I spend a lot of time thinking about how people communicate, connect, and construct meaning. So it only felt right to apply a little of that thinking to my own online presence.
This website is my humble attempt at practicing what I preach: creating a space where ideas, research, and the occasional soapbox moment can live in peace (or at least be less scattered across institutional pages, half-updated profiles, and forgotten conference bios).
It’s part academic archive, part digital identity experiment, and part proof that even qualitative researchers can wrangle a bit of HTML. If you’re here to browse, collaborate, or just procrastinate responsibly: welcome! And if something doesn’t work, it’s probably a feature, not a bug (I study human behavior, not websites).
