Cassidy Puckett is an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology at Emory University. Using a mixed-methods approach, she examines the relationship between technological change and inequality in education, occupations, and healthcare. Her first book, "Redefining Geek: Bias and the Five Hidden Habits of Tech-Savvy Teens" (U. Chicago Press, 2022) examines the meaning of technological skill, calling into question digital divide rhetoric that suggests gender, racial, and socioeconomic inequities in technology education and occupations are based on differences in skill. Challenging this idea, the book presents a new way to understand what it means to be good with technology and highlights how gatekeeping shapes the inequitable recognition and reward of technological talent. Dr. Puckett’s research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, the U.S. Department of Education, the MacArthur Foundation, the American Council of Learned Societies, and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Her work has appeared in academic journals including Harvard Educational Review, Social Science Computer Review, Social Science and Medicine, and Qualitative Sociology. She received her PhD in Sociology from Northwestern and master’s in Learning, Design and Technology from Stanford.
