Profile

My research examines the increasing use of private sector services, hardware, and software in public education. Looking at both the policies and technologies undergirding the recent surge of private-public partnerships in education, I am interested in understanding how commercialization affects the knowledge, practices, and politics of education and educational policy-making. My research interests include EdTech actors (Google, Apple, Microsoft, Pearson), consultancies (McKinsey, Ramböll), foundations (Mærsk, Gates), and various other quasi-public agents that partake at increasing rates in funding and delivering 'public' education.
