I am an assistant professor of sociology at Rhode Island College. I research the social implications of various information and communication technologies (ICTs) including the Internet and mobile phones. I am especially interested in how these technologies increase or decrease inequality between classes, racial groups, and nations. Thus, my work often touches on issues of the digital divide, digital inequality, and cyberbullying.
Research
The question that powers all of my work is: “How does the digital environment reproduce or mitigate inequalities in society“?
Bio
I grew up in Lake City, South Carolina. In my first life, I received my bachelors degree in biology education from South Carolina State University. After teaching high school for a couple of years I decided to go back to graduate school. I eventually made my way through University of South Carolina (Masters) and City University of New York Graduate Center (Doctorate). Now I live a relaxed life in Providence, RI.
