About Me

I’m a mas­ters stu­dent in human­i­ties at the Uni­ver­sity of Chicago inter­ested in cul­ture and phi­los­o­phy, and specif­i­cally how tech­nol­ogy changes how we exist.  I am a life-long stu­dent, which means, of course, that I’m a teacher.  I had a short, intense life in social media mar­ket­ing that led me quickly back to learn­ing and teach­ing.  I want to know how to best teach our youth how to learn and how to live, but I want to think about it in the lan­guage they speak: tech­nol­ogy.  In my work, I try to merge post-post-(post?)-modern social con­struc­tion­ism with phe­nom­e­nol­ogy and ethics.  I write about every­thing from Face­book to body image to foot­ball. I don’t always think in long-post for­mat (or always in com­plete thoughts, for that mat­ter). For my quick reac­tions to the world, find me on Twit­ter or Tum­blr, or find out more about me here.
