I am a social sciences and humanities researcher, who studies social networks (with an emphasis on Instagram), personal technologies and virtual identity. I am currently finishing my doctoral studies and looking to re-join the professional world.I had the opportunity to participate as a speaker at the 12th CONEICC Regional Meeting, the XIII Congress of the Latin American Association of Communication Researchers, and the National Meeting AMIC 2014. Likewise, I have had the pleasure of collaborating with international research centers such as the "Center for the Digital Future", of the University of Southern California; and the "Center for Research in Communication and Information" of the Tecnológico de Monterrey.Prior to enrolling in my PHD, I worked as a teacher at CETYS Universidad and XOCHICALCO Preparatoria, where I sought to promote critical thinking, the love for literature and the responsible use of personal technologies.When I'm not working on a research project, I spend my time reading, learning about graphic design, playing video games and managing my Instagram account.If you have a job opportunity for me or you’d like to learn more about my work, please reach via email (r.eridani@gmail.com).----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Skills: Creativity, critical-reflective thinking, public speaking, written and visual communication, media management, initiative to work as a team and individually, computer skills and new information and communication technologies applied to education; Advanced English language (TOEFL iBT 102/120); Photoshop management, Audacity, Sony Vegas Pro, and Office package.
