I am a passionate interpretive planner and independent curator with a desire for social change and equity. I seek opportunities to engage in relevant, difficult, and meaningful subject matter by holding space and making interdisciplinary connections between artists, communities, performances, and materiality. I live and work as a white settler in Tkaronto.

Art is Political. Museums are Not Neutral. Interpretation is anti-racist and decolonization work.

For me, successful and meaningful exhibitions are creative opportunities for discovery, learning, visitor-centered storytelling, inspiring inquisitiveness and curiosity. My goal is to empower visitors using holistic human centered approaches. I am a meaning-maker and storyteller creating and writing inclusive, exciting, and sometimes difficult exhibition narratives that both resonate and challenge visitors. I bring a trauma informed lens to my work making me a genuine empathetic learner and excellent listener whose skills and lived experiences allow me to develop narratives with respect, cultural sensitivity, compassion, honesty, and integrity. Accessibility and inclusion drive my motivation.

I value ongoing relationship building. Rooted in authenticity, kindness, and heart-centredness, I see artists and community members as collaborators, fostering new relationships, taking the time to get to know one another, while working together to build and achieve mutual goals and outcomes. These relationships do not stop at the end of an exhibition, but rather continue to grow in meaningful ways instead of being a one-time token collaboration.
