I research people, technology, and cities.
I analyze how under-served populations appropriate, play, and interact with digital communication technology. I am fanatical about communicating how cultural orientations influence technology use, regulation, and design. I engage with technology designers, policy makers, and leaders so that we can become better informed about the everyday lives of low-income communities. I'm also a Fulbright Fellow. I currently split my time between New York, California, and my research sites in China and Mexico. Let's chat! tw[at]triciawang[dot]com
