Ongoing research interests, conference presentations, and professional development
I'm interested in collaborative research projects that intersect film studies, cultural theory, and digital humanities. My work particularly focuses on how vernacular cultures engage with global aesthetic movements and how technology reshapes our understanding of cultural production.
I work at the intersections of research, design, and computation. Over the past few months, I've built this portfolio website's infrastructure from the ground up—designing, developing, and deploying a Next.js site on Vercel—which has given me a working command of modern web frameworks and the confidence to shape digital environments independently.
My scholarly workflow is grounded in rigorous knowledge-management practices. I organise long-form research through Zettelkasten-inflected systems and work extensively with Obsidian, Notion, and Zotero for bibliographic automation, structured note-making, and cross-platform archival tasks.
On the visual and editorial front, I use Canva and Affinity for image editing, layout, and presentation design, alongside AI-assisted web design. I am also gradually experimenting with lightweight Digital Humanities tools—Voyant and RAWGraphs—to explore how computational methods surface patterns across films, texts, and cultural datasets.
I am steadily expanding this skill set through hands-on projects that combine humanities inquiry with code, curation, and computational thinking, with a particular interest in the digital epistemologies that shape contemporary cultural research.
