I am a social demographer with broad interests in race relations, family, and race/gender stratification. One project with application to CSS methods analyzes interracial interaction among online daters using data acquired from a well known online dating website. The data set consists of nine million registered users worldwide with 200 million messages, from November 2003 to October 2010. Spanning beyond the dyadic interactions of messaging behaviors, I am interested in applications of social network analysis to examine the interconnectedness of daters at the group level and would like to explore how other computational models could be applied to the data.
