Information Science PhD Student at the University of Colorado Boulder. I am advised by Alexandra Siegel and Brian Keegan. At CU I am in the COLUMN Lab where we focus on users, media, and networks. I got my undergraduate degree in Computer Science at Washington and Lee University. There, I also specialized in Physics and got a minor in Arabic. In my PhD I plan to use my quantitive background to look at the connection between the Arab world and the US. I am particularly interested in social network analysis, language, narratives, and collective memory and how this is represented on platforms such as Wikipedia, Twitter and Facebook.
