Worked as an analyst and then researcher during the 2020 election and first year of the Biden presidency. Developed an expertise in digital extremism, paying special attention to platforms like Rumble and right-wing alternatives to Twitter, and also monitored right-wing actors on mainstream platforms like YouTube. Additional responsibilities included monitoring Alex Jones and figures who appeared on Infowars, and then later Steve Bannon’s “War Room.” I also contributed to several qualitative and quantitative studies of mainstream media outlets (including Fox News) and monitored government hearings to track relevant policy debates related to extremism and platform governance.
