Dr Olivia Fletcher

The image is a profile of the Early Careers Rep Olivia Fletcher. On the left is an image of Olivia smiling. She has blonde hair, wears a black jacket and white top and stands against a green and blue background. There is a title on the right, "Introducing...OLIVIA FLETCHER University Teacher, University of Liverpool". The beige text box below reads, "My recent work includes a paper on technology–space entanglements in relation to self-tracking and a creative writing workshop examining women’s access to health technologies. Digital geographies help us understand how technology shapes our lives, movements, bodies, identities and relationships - even when we don’t notice it happening! ". A final black box at the bottom reads, "Research interests: digital geographies of health & fitness, health tracking technologies, social media, embodiment, digital inequalities, feminist new materialism ". The background is made up of interlocking geometric shapes to highlight the photo and text.
