My thesis is available open access online! This was the product of years of blood, sweat and tears and I'm very proud of it. I hope others, especially current PhD students, will find it useful! ✨💖

I’m quoted in the Toronto Star today to explain how digital platforms make us “height police” our 🇨🇦 politicians as if they were online celebrities or Hinge matches 🫢 How does your pick measure up? 📐

How tall is Mark Carney? Inside our secret obsession with the heights of politicians — and what it says about us

How tall you are should have no impact on your leadership potential, and yet, every election cycle, it’s a question that Canadians keep asking Google.

I had a blast giving a guest lecture on Digital Ethnography to BA students at the University of Amsterdam yesterday about my ethnography of the London creator community-industry. Teaching ethnographic methods is always one my favourite things to do, thanks for having me @uvahumanities.bsky.social! 💗
