I understand scholarly community as the living infrastructure of research: the relational system through which ideas are refined, values are negotiated, and knowledge takes collective form. Scholarship is never an individual pursuit: it depends on the invisible work of reviewing, mentoring, editing, and building spaces where ideas can meet and transform. Service, for me, is an active part of this process. It is a form of intellectual craftsmanship that sustains the generativity of our field. In information systems and management research, community matters because our objects of study (digital technologies, data, and algorithms) are themselves deeply relational. How we organize our scholarly life shapes what kinds of research can emerge, what questions are legitimized, and whose voices are heard. Thoughtful service is therefore an ethical and epistemic responsibility: it determines how the field evolves and what it values. Guided by this view, I contribute to my scholarly community in several ways.
Service to the Scholarly Community ✍️
I contribute regularly to the information systems community as a reviewer, associate editor, and organizer across leading journals and conferences, including MIS Quarterly, Information Systems Research, and the Journal of the Association for Information Systems. I have served as an associate editor and reviewer for major conferences such as ICIS, ECIS, and AoM, helping to strengthen the emerging research in digital data, ethics, and technology. In recognition of these contributions, I received the Outstanding Early Career Editorial Board Member Award (2025) from the Journal of Strategic Information Systems, reflecting my commitment to supporting rigorous, constructive, and generative scholarship in the field.
Data Studies Community 🪴
My engaged outreach efforts center on building intellectual community and dialogue around data. I co-lead the Data Studies Bibliography, a global initiative that curates and connects scholars treating data as a core object of inquiry. Through this project, I edit a global blog and coordinate contributions from scholars that bring research insights to wider audiences, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue across information systems, management, and science and technology studies. This work has been recognized through an interview for an upcoming book on Social Media for Research Impact. I also co-organized a meeting exploring the creation of an AIS Special Interest Group on Data (SIG DATA), extending this scholarly network. Beyond these formal initiatives, I am committed to mentoring early-career scholars and co-organizing workshops and workshops on the future of data research in management. Collectively, these efforts advance field-building, scholarly communication, and public engagement with critical issues in data and technology.
Institutional Service 🎓
At the Isenberg School of Management, I bring my research commitments to the design of courses and learning environments that encourage students to think critically about data and technology. I enhanced OIM 350: Business Intelligence and Analytics to integrate questions of social responsibility, sustainability, and critical reflection on data management. I have also developed teaching materials and cases that connect issues of data design to diversity, equity, and inclusion, for instance, a case on pronoun data that helps students consider how data systems encode values of recognition and respect.
