About me

Industry Education
Occupation Lecturer at San Francisco State University in Applied Media Aesthetics.
Location West of Ireland, Mayo, Ireland
Introduction Former Lecturer at San Francisco State University in Applied Media Aesthetics. Graduated with a Master of Arts degree in Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts at San Francisco State University, B.A. in Media Studies at USF, San Francisco. I use this space to express my analysis of media. My definition of media is very broad. While the main focus will be on media analysis from an educational viewpoint I may take poetic license to reflect on the ordinary and the beautiful. I believe that aspiring towards an understanding of media is as fundamentally important in our society as the ability to communicate through any language. It is important to be aware of the biases and hegemonic tendencies of the media. I hope to contribute to our understanding of the media.
