I’m a community builder, learning designer, and storyteller working with cultural, creative, and educational organizations and technology companies.
From 2017–21, I co-led The Museum of Modern Art’s online Coursera courses, which help more than a million international learners connect with art and learn among a community of peers. Previously, I served as the content strategist for MoMA’s award-winning digital humanities platform Object:Photo, which used data to tell new stories about modernist photography. I’ve contributed to curatorial, publications, education, and development teams at the International Center of Photography, Aperture Foundation, and Yale University Art Gallery.
More recently, I worked in educational technology, coaching museums and universities on online community building tactics, and built peer-to-peer learning communities for senior leaders, artists, researchers, and others.
I hold a Master’s Degree in the History of Art from the Courtauld Institute of Art, London, and a Bachelor’s Degree in the History of Art from Yale University. In 2014–15, I collaborated with artists and curators in Budapest, Hungary on a Fulbright Fellowship. My research has focused on contemporary art and photography, artists’ associations, and the intersections of technology and art.
As a new-ish Californian, I’ve taken to edible gardening, and I created and lead Temescal Open Edible Gardens, an annual event that invites locals to visit edible gardens in Oakland and learn with neighbors.
