Personal profile

Research interests

As a PhD student, my research focuses on examining the interplay between social identities and online communities. I have previously contributed to a CREST project investigating the relationship between online organizing and offline collective action. While my background is primarily in psychology, I embrace interdisciplinary approaches, aiming to expand my skills in computational social science.

My current project involves examining how individuals navigate multiple identity presentation across extreme online communities. My ongoing projects extend to mapping the dissemination of conspiratorial and extreme rhetoric on Telegram, as well as efforts to enhance scheduling precision in group research methods. In addition, I am working on a project examining the potential relationship between 'Tradwife' content and extreme right-wing rhetoric.
