I am a historian of science and mathematics, specializing in science and technology studies and American cultural history. My current research examines the organization and politics of knowledge production in digital societies. I teach across a variety of fields and enjoy working with students to understand different forms of knowledge—whether historical or scientific—as active and ongoing.
