Seven Questions with... Avery Anapol

This week we meet UCL alumna Avery Anapol, who is originally from Wisconsin, and had lived in Washington, D.C before moving to London. Here, Avery chats to us about her experience at UCL, including her interesting research on political COVID-19 memes. What are you studying, why are you interested in this subject and what do you plan to do in the future?. I recently completed my MA in Applied Linguistics at the Institute of Education. I have always been interested in language, communication, discourse and media, and worked as a journalist before coming to UCL. The programme introduced me to different subfields of linguistics and research perspectives, and allowed me flexibility in my dissertation topic. I ultimately combined my love of digital media with the current events of 2020, and conducted my research on the rhetoric and semiotics of political COVID-19 memes.
