Since the beginning of my career, I have initiated, supported, and expanded programs and initiatives to center dance artists and moving bodies in dialogue with publics and communities of practice. Here are a few:
Projects
A participatory lecture and panel series initially designed and produced for The Cowles Center for Dance & the Performing Arts in partnership with the Performing Arts Archives at the University of Minnesota Libraries

Apostrophe: a monthly series of dance music poetry

Eco-futurism research that creates belonging and care while rebuilding humankind’s relationship within
the natural world
