Presentations and Talks

At the Eastern Communication Association’s 2022 conference, I participated in a round table focused on Social Media Policy and Ethics with a number of colleagues (including St. John’s University’s Regina Stuart, who is also pictured here!).
I presented “‘What Do You Have to Lose?’: Social Media’s Unsafe Spaces for practicing self” as a part of the New York Communication Association’s panel addressing “The Big Lie” and the January 6th Capitol Insurrection during the organization’s 2021 conference.
At the 2021 Northeast Popular Culture Association’s conference, I chaired a panel featuring three Hofstra undergraduates who presented work on the “Unrealities of Reality Television.” My presentation was titled, “Reality TV and the Media Literacy Classroom.”
This slide was part of my 2021 Media Ecology Association convention presentation, “Performing in the Virtual Classroom: A Dilemma of Self and Space.”

This is slide is from my presentation “Interplay or Interplay-fighting?: The pragmatic hopes for social media and civic engagement.” The presentation was a part of the 2020 New York State Communication Association annual conference.

This slide shows some of the initial findings that informed my presentation, “Multiplatform Identity Performance: Choices and Consequences.” The paper was presented at the 2020 Media Ecology Association convention.
This picture was snapped as I presented some initial findings from my paper titled, “Approaches to Teaching Media and Popular Culture: Examining student participation patterns in class and online” at the 2019 Northeast Popular Culture Association conference.
I presented my paper, “Covering your Losses: An analysis of the Chicago Daily Tribune’s baseball coverage of losing men and women’s ball clubs,” at the 2014 Popular Culture Association / American Culture Association National Conference.
