Check out the preprint for a paper that will be published at #CSCW2025! “Whose Knowledge is Valued?: Epistemic Injustice in CSCW Applications” by Leah Ajmani, Jasmine Foriest, @jordant, Kyle Pittman, me, and @michaelann. I’m really proud of this one, even though I only had a small hand in it.

I'm currently on the job market, looking for tenure-track academic positions and highly mission-relevant positions outside of academia. My latest papers are a good sample of the kind of work I do:

Transfeminine TikTok Creators, Folk Theorization, and the Algorithmic Trap of Visibility: https://wp.me/p2O4Fr-fJ

Folk Theorization as Algorithmic Literacy: https://wp.me/p2O4Fr-au

Trans Experiences in Online ED Spaces: https://wp.me/p2O4Fr-g1

LGBTQ+ Platform Design Values: https://wp.me/p2O4Fr-9T
