About

I’m an assistant research professor of African American Studies at Penn State. I’m also the managing director of the PSU Center for Black Digital Research (#DigBlk!). 

I co-direct the Colored Conventions Project and Douglass Day.

I’m working on a book about The Invention of Editors.

Over here, I post my CV and short bio…

There’s more on the pages for my research, teaching, and public + digital work.
