I'm an assistant professor in the iSchool (College of Information Science and Technology) at Drexel University in Philadelphia.

I received my PhD from the College of Computing at Georgia Institute of Technology in human-centered computing with a focus on social computing and learning sciences. My MLIS is from the School of Information at University of Texas at Austin.

I'm interested in how emergent uses of technology create opportunities for people to construct new knowledge together.

Fes, Morocco, 2004
While wandering through the Medina in Fes, we stopped in several medieval buildings that looked as though they hadn't changed at all in the hundreds of years that they'd been standing. This photo was taken in an uninhabited medieval Medersa, or Islamic school, looking up past rows of students' quarters to the open sky above.
