Bio/Research Statement:
I am interested in measuring and modeling social dynamics. Before graduate school, I spent a good deal of time developing highly stylized agent-based models. For the better or worse I now just deal directly with data, and conduct large-scale studies of online communities. My current focus is on two related processes in social networks: information diffusion and influence.
Current Research:
My two active research projects examine how people influence one another in social media networks.
