I am Beatrys Rodrigues and I am on the academic job market! I'm seeking tenure-track faculty roles and postdoctoral research opportunities.

 

I am a Ph.D. Candidate at Cornell University, in the Communication Department. I Graduated with a Specialization in Consumer & Material Culture: Semiopsychanalitic Perspectives and a BA in Social Communications with an emphasis in Advertising from the University of São Paulo. I have worked for companies such as Airbnb and delivered work for others such as Santander, Banco Central do Brasil, Colgate, SWIFT, Facebook, McDonald's, GIZ, Armasuisse, World Government Summit, and the UN. I have lived in the US, Canadá and Holland. 

​

I am a Brazilian qualitative researcher interested in technology and gender, focusing on creating worker and creator-led collaborative paths against harassment and labor inequality mediated by digital platforms, as well as investigating decolonial design fiction. I draw on intersectional feminisms, anti-colonial perspectives, and Latin American militant research lenses. My academic background is rooted in a multidisciplinary approach, utilizing theoretical frameworks from Communication, Science and Technology Studies, and Gender Studies.

 

Additionally, I explore intersections between scientific inquiry through collaborative media-making, documentary filming, and speculative design experiences.
