About

Hello! Welcome to my digital realm! I’m Courtney, a sophomore at the University of Mary Washington, entering the world of digital studies for the first time through the course “Intro to Digital Studies” (DGST 101).

As a political science major, member of the honors program, and proud cheerleader for UMW, I hope to bring a unique perspective to the digital landscape. On this site, you can expect a focus on digital histories, methodologies, cultures, creativity, and other special topics. I will accomplish these focuses through the use of image, video, and audio production, interrogating AI, the Internet of things, and more.

Thank you for visiting my site and feel free to leave comments on my posts!
