William R. Frey is a jointly funded Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the School of Information and the School of Social Work, and Faculty Affiliate of the Digital Studies Institute at the University of Michigan. He is also an AI Fellow with the Derek Bok Center for Teaching and Learning at Harvard University, and he co-leads the Critical Race and Intersectional Technology (CRIT) Collective—an intergenerational, creative, and intellectual community of care. William’s scholarship examines the relationship between humans and technology, complicating how we think about digital platforms and artificial intelligence. With groundings in critical theory and qualitative participatory methods, he focuses on how technologies impact human interaction and how humans use, navigate, and resist technologies to survive and thrive. William received his Ph.D from Columbia University in Social Work with concentrations in technology, social media, and critical social theory; his M.S.W. in Community Organization and B.A. in Psychology from the University of Michigan.
