I am a PhD student at the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information, Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) . I hold a Master of Arts in Communication and New Media and a Bachelor of Social Sciences (Hons) from the National University of Singapore.
My work engages questions of gender, digital culture, and technology-facilitated harm, with ongoing involvement in projects on campus sexual misconduct, online sexual harms, and queer experiences in Singapore.
Outside of academia, I enjoy science fiction, spice-forward cuisines, and planning my next travel adventure.
My work sits at the intersection of communication theory, critical technology studies, and feminist scholarship. I study how sociotechnical imaginaries, infrastructures, and everyday platforms shape gendered subjectivities, norms, and harm—especially in Singapore’s Smart Nation context.
Cyber (u/dys)topias: Glitching Sociotechnical Imaginaries in Singapore's Smart Nation
I examine Singapore’s Smart Nation as a technopolitical imaginary that produces compliant digital subjects while obscuring infrastructural and affective violence, and theorise the glitching cyborg as a site where this power fractures.
Ongoing empirical work on technology-facilitated sexual violence and digital safety, including mixed-methods projects on campus sexual misconduct and online sexual harms in Singapore.
