Candidate statement

I am an Associate Professor of Emerging Media at the College of Charleston who researches the intersections of touch, science, and media technology. I have been an active member of SLSA since I first attended the 2012 conference. During this time, I have organized 4 panel streams around the theme of reconfiguring sensations, frequently recruiting panelists from outside of the organization. By serving as a Member-at-Large, I hope to gain a better understanding of the organization’s goals and mission while also helping to shape the fields and modes of intellectual engagement represented at the annual conferences.
