About
I am an interdisciplinary scholar with an academic and industry background in communications, history, law, and criminology. I write about the imaginaries and implications of AI and bots in society, and dissect the dynamics of human and automated cultures within digital platforms.
I am currently a Research Fellow in Inclusive AI at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision Making & Society (ADM+S), located at the School of Media and Communications at Swinburne University of Technology.
My PhD (in the final stages) was conducted at the Digital Media Research Centre (DMRC) at Queensland University of Technology with funding from the ADM+S. Through digital ethnographic methods my thesis narrates how humans and bots co-inhabit online spaces, and how Reddit user communities negotiate and enforce norms and acceptable practices for innovative uses and play with automated and emerging technology.
