Welcome

I am an Associate Research Scholar in the department of Sociology at Columbia University, working on a book about institutional disaster risk management in New York City. My research interests sit at the intersection of organizations, cities, the environment, and the sociology of science, knowledge and technology.

I recently finished co-directing a team of researchers constructing a multi-modal archive of New York City’s experience with the Covid-19 pandemic. More information about the project is available here. My work with the project was profiled in The New York Times Magazine, which you can read here.

My CV is here. More information about my research, including publication links, is here. Some links to work I have done in public sociology, journalism and criticism are here. I write an occasional e-mail newsletter which you can find here.
