Bridging research
& cultural practice
I am an assistant professor and curator at the University of Washington Information School in Seattle. I currently teach gender and race in information technology, information and social justice, and Afrofuturism and technology. As an art historian I do memory work, excavate archives, and challenge distorted images. My artistic research approaches ethics of care in the digital cultural commons.
