Educational researcher and research design consultant working with early-career researchers, cross-disciplinary teams, social-sector professionals, and NGOs. An ethnographer at heart, I focus on the process of ‘educating in everyday living.’ Last 15 years of research spans diverse spaces: schools and afterschool programs; social media, virtual worlds, and gaming; MOOCs and online learning; and the current work with the Laman Banjara community. Over the years I have worked with a variety of research methodologies, innovatively bringing in methods from different disciplines to bear on the research project at hand.
