Tracey Hayes received her Ph.D. from Arizona State University in Writing, Rhetorics, and Literacies. Her research is anchored in digital media/social advocacy studies in order to understand how social media, in particular Twitter, can be used as a means for public protest in the quest for social justice. Her research has been published in journals including Computers and Composition and she regularly presents her scholarship at conferences, including the Conference on College Composition and Communication, Computers and Writing, and the Association of Rhetoric & Writing Studies.
She has received multiple grants and awards and was one of twelve scholars who received a fellowship in 2018 to attend KairosCamp, an Institute for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities, funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Her fellowship project involved developing a prototype for an interactive data visualization in order to understand how a protest can garner, mobilize, and sustain interest through data analysis.
