I am a qualitative social scientist specializing in interpretive, anti-positivist, constructionist epistemologies. I am a Spanish Ministry of Science fellow (Juan de la Cierva Incorporación) at University of Valladolid, in the department of Sociology and Social Work. My research is funded by a European Union grant (NextGenerationEU). Previously, I worked as lecturer in Media Audiences and Users at the University of Sheffield and was affiliated to the research group Media, Policy and Culture (Department of Communication, Faculty of Social Sciences) from University of Antwerp in Belgium. I was awarded a PhD in Communication and the special prize for outstanding dissertations by Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, Spain. I also hold a Master‘s Degree in Media Culture from Paderborn University in Germany and an undergraduate Degree (Licenciatura) in Audiovisual Communication from my homeland, Argentina. My research interests lie at the intersections of digital and popular cultures with audiences and fandom research. I work within the fields of media studies, media sociology, and anthropology.My work has been published by Television and New Media, Celebrity Studies, and Journal of Contemporary Ethnography, among others. I also contributed a chapter to Routledge’s anthology Mediated Intimacies (ECREA Book Series).
