I'm the University College Dublin Ad Astra Fellow at the School of Information and Communication Studies and Senior Lecturer in Media and Communication in the Department of Sociology at City, University of London. Previous to that I held research positions at the University of California at Davis, Duke University, University of São Paulo, and the Goethe-University of Frankfurt. 

My research leverages network science and computational methods to explore the intersection of communication and critical data studies, particularly the cross-effects between online and offline social networks. My work has appeared in Journal of Communication, Social Networks, and New Media & Society and was featured in major media outlets such as BBC, New York Times, Guardian, Washington Post, Bloomberg, Wired, and BuzzFeed.
