I'm a digital culture analyst and media theorist. I research how memes encode behavior, how algorithms reshape attention and how new media forms collapse the frameworks we use to understand communication, identity and power. I've been inside every major shift in digital culture. I wrote my first programs in BASIC on a Commodore Vic20. I discovered the web through Netscape while studying Intermedia in art school, when digital experimentation was still a fringe idea. I built strategy for brands during the Web2 marketing boom. I tracked the speculative creativity of Web3 in real time. Now, in the AI era, I work as an educator and media theorist making sense of what all of this means and what comes next.
