In 2019, I was Co-Curator of Arts & Culture for re:publica Detroit, in partnership with Europe’s largest conference on the Internet and digital society.

I received a BFA in Fine Art and Art History from Eastern Michigan University. I am the Founder of Seraphine Collective, a network of women/femme/nonbinary musicians, artists & DJ’s cultivating creative liberation and camaraderie within Detroit’s music scene, and a 2017 fellow of the Salzburg Global Forum for Young Cultural Innovators.
