Amanda Morris
Biography
Broadly speaking, I am interested in studying human connection in the digital age. I am particularly interested in the ways that technology and digital devices impact and shape our communicative behavior within interpersonal interactions and relationships. My research interests are fueled by a desire to better understand how people may feel seen, heard, and embraced in a given interaction and/or conversation. I find great joy and satisfaction in conducting mixed-methods, interdisciplinary research, and I have vocational experience in many phases of the research process.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my loved ones, baking and cooking, crafting, and spending time outdoors.
