New #introduction for all the fresh faces. I'm an associate professor at UMass Amherst, where I teach about #journalism and #MediaIndustries. My research focuses on media distribution and, occasionally, dysfunction in the adtech industry.

I also co-edit a book series on the civic impacts of media distribution for The MIT Press, so feel free to hit me up if you're working on a relevant project.

@josh Josh, could you link to MIT series site, sounds great

@josh Thanks Josh, they all look great! Did not realize Emily's book was out, I'll need to get that. A long time ago she was studying greeting card exchange and I was studying mix tape exchange and we had a lot to talk about.

@slobster48602 That's awesome! Glad you know each other and that I've made a book sale for her. I hope you find a lot to talk about, again.
