I am a Senior Lecturer at the School of Communication, and a Chief Investigator at the Digital Media Research Centre (DMRC), Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Australia.

My research investigates the entanglement of the discursive and the digital, with particular focus on communication technologies and media. I primarily study the dynamics of discursive struggles in digitally mediated political communication. This interest has led to research projects across the various dimensions of this entanglement, including antagonism, polarization, ‘fake news’, fact-checking, and political communication on mainstream and fringe social media platforms.

I have developed theoretical and methodological approaches to studying digitally mediated communication. My work has been published in Social Media+ Society, Media and Communication, Politics and Governance, Internet Policy Review, among others. You can find some of my work here.

I synthesize and extend my research in The Discursive-Digital Link.
