I am an educational researcher and practitioner committed to advancing learning ecosystems that are equitable, connected, and responsive to community-grounded knowledge. My focus lies at the intersection of educational technology, community-engaged research, and critical inquiry into how broader social, cultural, and technological forces shape educational opportunities. In my role as Faculty Fellow in Community-Engaged Research at IU–Indianapolis, I support scholars in designing, executing, and sustaining research that emerges with and for communities.

• Faculty Fellow, Community-Engaged Research — Indiana University Indianapolis: Developing institutional infrastructure, networks, and supports for engaged scholars.
• Associate Professor, Technology, Innovation & Pedagogy — School of Education, IU–Indianapolis: Teaching, research, and leadership in urban-education contexts.
• Selected Projects:
  • Digital Education Hub for Rigorous Remote Learning with Communities (DEH) — Creating inclusive digital learning infrastructures grounded in community practice.
  • Community Studies of Antisemitism in Schools (CSAIS) — Applying mixed-methods and analytics to understand antisemitic incidents and dynamics in educational contexts.
  • Collaborative for Equitable & Inclusive STEM Learning (CEISL) — Exploring STEM learning that is contextualised in identity, community, and justice frameworks.

• Educational Technology & Infrastructure for Justice: Investigating how digital tools, platforms, and networks can support equitable learning.
• Community-Engaged Design & Participatory Development: Co-designing research and interventions in partnership with schools, families, and community organisations.
• AI, Social Network & Geospatial Analytics in Education: Leveraging data-driven methods for understanding educational systems and community dynamics.
• Cognitive Anthropology Approaches:
  • Applying Cultural Consensus Theory (CCT) to infer shared models of meaning and practice within educational and community domains. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
  • Engaging Cultural Modeling (e.g., shared mental models, schemas) to surface how cultural knowledge and beliefs shape learning, design, and technology adoption. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
• Equitable STEM Learning & Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies: Investigating how STEM trajectories anchor in identity, community knowledge, and purpose rather than narrow pipeline metaphors.
• Teacher Preparation, Digital Pedagogies & Community-School-Family Networks: Preparing educators to work in digitally mediated, community-connected learning ecosystems.

• Establishing frameworks and systems for institutional support of community-engaged scholarship—defining pathways, metrics, advisory networks, and infrastructure for sustained impact.
• Co-designing AI-enabled tools and platforms that assist teachers in developing culturally-relevant and community-grounded STEM/CT lessons, informed by cognitive anthropology and cultural consensus methods.
• Advancing analytic methods (social networks, geospatial analytics, AI) to examine how antisemitism, white/Christian nationalism, and online hate manifest within school- and community-based learning contexts.
• Re-framing the “STEM career pipeline” narrative towards STEM trajectories rooted in community, identity, purpose and justice, and developing design-based interventions accordingly.

Here are representative repositories demonstrating work on methods, infrastructure, and collaboration:

• ceisl-stem/fafi-sna – Family as Faculty as Infrastructure: Social Network Analysis (R)
• pi-py – Python code repository for PECTIN-A project
• Digital-Education-Hub/dehsi2021online – Hugo-site and materials from the 2021 Summer Institute
• csais-dashboard – Dashboard, data analysis and visualisations related to antisemitic incident reporting

You are welcome to explore, fork, and contribute. I continuously refine tools, methods, and frameworks and am open to collaborative ventures.

  I welcome dialogue with educators, community partners, technologists, policymakers, and fellow scholars who are committed to advancing inclusive, connected, and justice-oriented learning ecosystems.

In a world marked by rapid technological change, deepening educational inequities, and increasing social fragmentation, my vision is clear: schools, families, community organisations and emergent technologies must work in concert to create learning environments where all learners — especially those historically marginalised — thrive as agents of inquiry, meaning-making and democratic engagement. My commitment is to build the infrastructures, sustain the relationships, and activate the networks that make inclusive, connected and resilient educational futures possible.

Thank you for visiting. If any of the themes or projects resonate with you, let’s connect and explore the possibility of meaningful collaboration.
