BIOGRAPHY
I teach advances in science and technology from a social sciences perspective, using web search as a case study and lens. I study how people imagine, use, and make web search, so that we might be better able to advocate for the appropriate role and shape of search in our work, lives, and society. I am especially focused on how we might, together, reimagine and redesign our web search tools and practices to advance shared values.
