curatorial + archival

writing
between nyc, boston, and digital orbits ...
i write, curate, and research alternative approaches to narrative-construction to challenge how stories are legitimized and preserved. through off-site curatorial interventions and building counter-archives focused on durational and ephemeral media, i examine the interstices where artistic dialogue can extend beyond established systems and infrastructures. i am currently expanding these ideas as a master in design studies candidate at harvard graduate school of design, working within the institution while maintaining a practice that extends beyond its bounds.
i believe in 1) communal knowledge-building centered around experimentation and play 2) embedding archeological approaches with speculative frameworks to imagine more ethical and empathetic futures.
i have held a number of roles in curatorial and archival research, editorial strategy, arts journalism and communications, and ai education.
i graduated from amherst college with a bachelor’s degree in english and russian.
