Research interests
I have a keen interest ideology and socail media. My reserach is attempting to fuse together Slavoj Žižek’s version of ideology with Kylie Jarrett’s “Digital Housewife”. From the fusion of these two positions, I am attempting to conceive of a new way that social media, ideologically, is impacting our daily experince.
