Short Introduction

I am an open educator at Duke University, where I am directing an initiative to integrate open source principles and methodologies into modes of thinking, communicating, and creating within education.

My teaching and research focus on open knowledge, education innovation, connected communication, participatory democracy, the phenomenology of collaboration and meritocratic organization, and design methodology. I have deep experience creating and scaling collaborative faculty development and curriculum innovation initiatives, have presented and written extensively about hacking knowledge in relation to student and citizen agency, and have directed grant-funded initiatives centered on open knowledge and networked communication and digital form.
