About

Writer, researcher, speaker, and research communications lead at Gies College of Business.

PhD, University of Illinois, 2022. My research explored UBI, economic rhetoric, and how radical ideas go mainstream.

I write about political and economic discourse, platform media, work culture, language theory, and the intersection of tech, automation, and business.

Tinkerer, audio obsessive, coffee-fueled board game strategist, frequent Commander night casualty, Arkham Horror campaigner, and multi-instrumentalist with a love of deep bass.

Loose thoughts here on class, economics, MacOS, automation, and tech business. Also UBI, productivity, and why we keep reinventing the same workplace problems.
