I'm a PhD Student in the Computer Science and Communications departments at Northwestern University. I currently work with Darren Gergle and Aaron Shaw, studying collaboration and coordination dynamics within social computing systems, such as Wikipedia and Zooniverse.  Throughout my tenure as a graduate student I've also interned at MSR India, Google, and Mozilla.


I first became interested in HCI during my undergraduate degree at the University of Washington.  I earned a degree in Human Centered Design and Engineering, where I worked with Professor Kate Starbird to understand rumoring behavior in crisis situations.  I also studied Medieval European history.

When I'm not working on research, I'm probably riding my bike or planning a backpacking trip.  You can find more about my research at my [http://jmaddock.net/ website].
