Undergraduate Mental Health

I am currently working on a SSHRC-funded research project on the effects media on undergraduate student mental health.  Together with my colleagues from Trent University, we are investigating how social and print media work to shape a narrative of the undergraduate experience on campus.

Feminist Digital Identities

Women are present, participate, and shape online, digital spaces. My research focuses on how women construct and maintain their online digital identities, with a particular focus on gender performance and digital silencing in social media.  Click here to visit my Twitter profile.
