I'm an artist and educator working with electronic media and social practice.

I studied Electronic Integrated Arts at the New York State College of Ceramics, design hands-on learning at Beam Center, make arcade cabinets with Arcade Commons (previously Death by Audio Arcade), and I'm a PhD student in Film & Digital Media at UC Santa Cruz.
