About me

I am a PhD student at The School of Information Studies at Syracuse University. I did my first year at Penn State University, and then moved to Syracuse with my advisor. I received a BSc in Public Administration from Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, and a Master of Science in Information Systems from the London School of Economics. My master dissertation conducted a structurational analysis of how Course Management Systems are used in practice.

My broad area of interest is concerned with the ways information and communication technologies come to play in contemporary organizations, and how they interact with other organizational elements like structures and processes. In particular, I am interested in inter-organizational arrangements as the empirical contexts of study. These domains interest me as they demonstrate more complex interplays between contextual contingencies and ICT. I'm currently working with Dr Steve Sawyer on a NSF-funded project which investigates the innovation network that has given rise to the Microsoft Surface.
