About me
I research the use & misuse of cultural products, ideas, and systems
My name is Abbey Michelle Miller, and I am completing a doctoral degree in Applied Social & Cultural Psychology with a graduate minor in Middle East & Muslim World Studies at Florida International University. I am broadly interested in the use and misuse of culturally specific products, ideas, and systems as they relate to Middle Eastern and North African populations. I am presently involved in research projects related to cultural appropriation motivations and harms as well as social media whitewashing. Learn more about my research journey, interests, and goals below.
