I work at the intersection of art, technology, and culture, with a focus on how creative systems are built and how cultural memory is preserved in digital spaces. My writing and research examine the structures that shape authorship, ownership, and access, particularly within digital art and emerging technologies.
My work has long centered artists and communities who have historically been excluded from cultural and economic power, including women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ creators. This focus informs how I think about platforms, archives, and the conditions under which creative work is able to endure.
I founded Artskout to support artists, collectors, and institutions navigating digital art, and TheBlkChain as a living archive of digital Black cultural production and underrepresented artists. These projects reflect a broader commitment to preservation, authorship, and cultural continuity in networked environments.
I bring an institutional perspective shaped by years of building and leading community and creator programs in Web3. That experience informs my approach to cultural infrastructure, research, and criticism, grounding it in practice rather than abstraction.
My current work centers on Proof of Culture, a body of essays and a forthcoming book examining art, technology, and the politics of preservation. The questions driving this work are direct and unresolved. Who controls the archive. What ownership means in digital culture. How power shapes creative futures.
This site brings together my writing, research, and ongoing projects exploring how culture is created, sustained, and remembered.
