My research is concerned with the relationship between discourse and power as mediated by advanced information, communication, and media technologies. I examine this relationship at the institutional level, at the individual level, and as a set of policies and practices across media platforms. My dissertation examines the role of discourse in shaping the history of large-scale technological initiatives of the National Science Foundation, with particular emphasis on information and communication technologies.

In addition to the above work, I have I have published research on both weblog journalism and political blogging -- examining the effect of independent journalism on the existing media landscape and the vitality of cross-ideological political discussions among liberal and conservative bloggers respectively. I have also conducted research on mobile surveillance and role of information and communication technologies in mediating the relationship between the observer and observed.
