Visually Speaking

I’m the Curator of Exhibitions at the Spelman College Museum of Fine Art in Atlanta, where I lead our education and engagement initiatives. I’m committed to helping students use the museum as a space to deepen and enrich their liberal arts experience, and I’m equally passionate about welcoming our broader community to experience and engage with the arts. Above all, I want everyone who walks into our museum to feel invited, included, and at home in our space.

Before joining Spelman, I served as a postdoctoral fellow with the Digital Inquiry, Speculation, Collaboration, and Optimism (DISCO) Network, a collective of interdisciplinary researchers exploring anti-racist and anti-ableist digital futures. My work centered on ethical digital storytelling for cultural sites and was guided by a framework I developed called Black feminist technopractice. Grounded in Black feminist theory, this approach blends participatory and speculative design with artistic and archival practices, drawing on Black technoculture to imagine new ways Black communities create meaning in digital spaces.

My current research focuses on Black digital visual culture, Black feminist world-making, and digital storytelling. I have a PhD in Digital Media from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies from Georgia State University.

The Work…

Museum Programming and Education

Meaningful education and engagement with artists and the broader community are essential, as they create opportunities for dialogue, inspiration, and shared cultural experiences.

Design & Interactive Narratives

As lead project manager for design projects, including the Mellon-funded DILAC Lab Pickrick A/R Project at Georgia Tech, I applied design and project management principles that I continue to bring to my exhibitions and initiatives.
