Alexander Hanna is a sociology graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as well as a software developer and utterly hopeless computer nerd.
I'm interested in social movements, online social networking and media, and the Middle East. I would like to examine how online social networking affects the outcomes of social movements by utilizing social network analysis on the network data that these tools provide.
I'm also the cofounder and lead developer for gradtrackr.com, a materials-tracking website for graduate school applicants. It's still in development, so if you want to know more, please contact me.
In my spare time, I read (even more), play capoeira, and go to live music shows. For the long Madison winters, I knit and am occasionally coerced into snowboarding.
