About

Jeehyun Jenny Lee is a bridge to faculty postdoctoral associate in the Department of Communication. Her research examines the power dynamics and inequities at play in the development of new media cultures, including AI cultures, creator culture, and social media pop culture, with a focus on minority representation and agency. Much of her work has focused on race, gender, and Asian representation. By analyzing these areas, her work seeks to shed light on how new media technologies and cultures shape societal structures and influence representation in the digital landscape. Her work can be found in journals such as Social Media + Society, International Journal of Communication, Communication, Culture & Critique, Feminist Media Studies, and Surveillance & Society.
