Media Interviews

Had a blast speaking with Ed Cotton, host of the Inspiring Futures podcast and Tyler Moore, the Director of Strategy at The Escape Pod about all things brand strategy and small agency culture. 

I'm quoted in this fun read in the Toronto Star about celebrities spilling the tea on celebrity hosted podcasts.  

I talked reality TV and feminism with Krysten Stein on  Feminist Book Club's podcast. This one was a lot of fun!  

I spoke with CBC news about the media circus surrounding the Johnny Depp & Amber Heard trial.  

I spoke with iNews about Real Housewives of Salt City's casting & the franchise's ability to attract cons and grifters. 

I spoke with Yahoo! News Canada about the exploitation of people online & the media ethics surrounding the tragic death of Toronto personality, Debby.

Expert interview for an article in the Chicago Tribune discussing  trolling, racism, and The Bachelor franchise. 

My work with Nicole NeSmith, on 'The Bachelorette,' Self-Branding, and Instagram is the focal point of this article in Quartzy: 

"Sociologists are using the bachelorette Instagram posts to study modern femininity"

I spoke with Dame Magazine about the "villain" edit on reality TV,  the need for reality stars to unionize, and the importance of "duty of care" measures for participants in "How Reality TV Fails its Stars."

Listen to episode 47 of "Rose Buds: The Most Dramatic Podcast Ever," where my colleague and I talk about our research on The Bachelor, Branding, and Instagram.
