Academic background

Hello! I'm Jay Russell, a returning college student at Wichita State University studying Communication with a minor in Text Technologies.

My journey started in IT, where I discovered my love for problem-solving and analytical thinking. Now I blend tech expertise with communication skills to explore how we share information and tell stories across different platforms.

In Text Technologies, I dig into fascinating topics like; evolution of writing systems, digital preservation methods, and how technology shapes the way we create and share content.

Research interests

My primary focus is Sherlockian studies, but I love exploring many fascinating topics! Here are some highlights:

• Recently researched Felicia Gizycka, a fascinating forgotten socialite who wrote Beautiful Summer in Newport
  • Planning a detailed page about Gizycka's life and work, but unsure if I want it here.
• The process of digital archival and the importance of retaining and maintaining physical material (Library science with a mindset of textual history)

When I'm not diving into detective fiction, you'll find me immersed in fantasy or sci-fi worlds like:

• Lord of the Rings
• The Witcher
• Star Trek

Recently finished and loved: Ultra 85 by Logic
