Genevieve Allotey-Pappoe is a Ph.D candidate in the Music Department and a University Administrative Fellow for the New Media Studio Project. Her research interests include the popular music industry and the circulation of music of the African diaspora using digital technology and race as critical categories. She served as the President and Social Chair of the Princeton African Graduate Student Association and the Black Graduate Caucus respectively in the 2019/2020 academic year. Genevieve loves to travel and explore new cultures and cuisines.

"I am excited to work on new media initiatives as part of the GradFutures program. In the 21st century, digital technology has transformed the circulation of information and knowledge both spatially and temporally. This project is a great avenue to explore the various ways graduate students can use new media in their work. This will also contribute immensely to the professional development of those students who have the desire to be public intellectuals. 

The GradFutures program is a great initiative for the professional development of graduate students at Princeton."
