I am a strategist interested in the way communities and institutions are reshaped through design, technology, and belief.
Previously, I was Lead Strategist at
Consortia, a research, strategy, and design office in New York City, and a consultant at
Are.na, a social platform for collaborative research. I was selected as an inaugural member of
GSAPP Incubator at
NEW INC, the New Museum's shared workspace for creative practitioners. I was also a fellow at
IdeasCity Arles, a residency program exploring rural-urban revitalization with arts and culture as a driving force. My
writing on the evolving landscape of museums in China has been published in
LEAP magazine. I studied architecture at Columbia University (BA '14).
