I am an artist, writer, educator and Ph.D. candidate at the University of California in San Diego where I am an affiliate of the Critical Gender Studies Program, a Katzin Fellow and a Black Studies Project Awardee.

My dissertation focuses on the art and life of stage and television actor Felicia Montealegre Bernstein (1922-1978). My artwork has been exhibited at Plug In Institute for Contemporary Art (Winnipeg), the National Gallery of Costa Rica (San José), Contemporary Art Gallery (Vancouver), and at artist run centres in Canada, including Artspeak, Access, Blinkers and 221A.

My writing has appeared in Canadian Art, Public Parking, Charcuterie, c magazine, PubLab and The Capilano Review. My play, The Mexican Husband was published by Blank Cheque Press (2019) and has been staged as a reading-event at the 3rd Kamias Triannial (2020), at Artspeak in Vancouver (2019), at Deslave in Tijuana (2018) and, more recently at Vinegar Contemporary in Birmingham, Alabama (2022).
