About

I am an artist, educator, environmentalist and activist. My installations, performances and live experiences engage an expanded range of senses. For example, my immersive environment Shiver, explores the way human bodies sense themselves in space through varying degrees of humidity. Shiver was shown at the ISEA Festival in New Mexico and the Burchfield Penney Art Center in Buffalo, NY. I have also made interactive work in Newcastle, UK; Winnipeg, MB; Houston, TX; Rock Hill, NC; and Alexandria, VA.

More recently, my research has focused on the living world, co-creating with mycelium, fungi, insects and soil to address biodiversity loss and environmental justice. The work is multi-faceted, site-specific and transpires in overlapping circles of collaboration with community and research partners, such as the international I.N.S.E.C.T. Community, the Eastside Community Network, and the Michigan Climate Action Network. 

Currently I teach interdisciplinary at Oakland University in Rochester Hills, Michigan. I received an MFA in Time and Interactivity from the University of Minnesota and an MS in Architecture Design from the University of Michigan
