I am a cultural anthropologist. I work in the Internet. I am interested in media, technology, and culture, and specifically research the technological mediation of body identity. For my book manuscript, I did ethnographic fieldwork looking at the mitigation of "misfit" bodies within the Otherkin community. My current research explores both the construction of "whiteness" in white supremacist Internet spaces and changing digital mourning practices during the COVID-19 pandemic.
What even is cultural anthropology, you ask? You should read this thing I wrote at SAPIENS.
Please peruse my site at your leisure and learn more about many things.
