Assistant Professor of Information Systems

Research Areas

My research interests lie at the intersection of technology use and the outcomes of that use. Because information systems are primarily tools to be used, I seek to understand how those tools are used and the extent to which use results in desired outcomes. I explore these issues directly through outcome-focused projects, indirectly through novel data collection methods and theoretically through research about research. which knowledge is created. My outcome-focused research initially revolved around one鈥檚 use of technology in pursuit of creativity and innovation鈥攖he topic of my dissertation鈥攂ut has evolved to include one鈥檚 use of technology in search of the truth (e.g., sharing unverifiable information, propagating myths, etc.). Given my technical background in computer science and application development, some of my research projects have been driven less by interest in a phenomenon and more by the ready availability of Big Data. These projects are topically diverse, ranging from the portrayal of risk drinking behaviors on YouTube to the use of Twitter as a warning system during crises, but they are united in their use of data collection and analysis methods. Finally, since my PhD studies, I have been haunted by the question: How do we know that we know what we know?, and several of my projects explore this issue by investigating how we measure psychological phenomena and how we create novel theoretical contributions.
