assistant professor of interdisciplinary arts

texas tech university
I am an artist, researcher, and educator based in Lubbock, Texas (by way of Berkeley, California and Milwaukee, Wisconsin). I earned a PhD in Performance Studies and certificate in Film Studies from the University of California, Berkeley, where I made puppets, did design-oriented solo performance, researched Czech surrealist stop-motion in Prague, taught at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre, and wrote a dissertation on discourses of life in animation and dance film. Before coming to Texas Tech University to teach in an interdisciplinary doctoral program in fine arts, I was assistant professor of arts theory/practice at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee.

As an artist committed to both live and media-based performance (indeed, in breaking down the distinctions between them), I have exhibited my work in galleries and performance spaces in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, India, Japan, Mexico, Tanzania, Trinidad and Tobago, and across Europe and the United States. Most recently, I presented theatrical design at the Prague Quadrennial (Czech Republic), performance art at Glasshouse in Brooklyn (US), theatre at the Porsgrunn International Theatre Festival (Norway), video art at Seattle's Northwest Film Forum (US), and sound art at the PNEM festival of sound art in Uden (the Netherlands) and Spring/Break Art Fair in New York. For more information about my creative work, check this out.

I am also a scholar who writes about media and the aesthetics of subjectivity in 19th-21st century contexts. I have given sustained attention to corporeality in analog and digital animation, adolescence in fine art and popular media, performances and technologies of affective labor, and the agency of objects and images. I have additional expertise in discourses of interdisciplinarity in the arts-based humanities as well as nontraditional formats for academic scholarship. My first book, Girlhood and the Plastic Image, was published by Dartmouth College Press in June of 2014. A more detailed statement about my scholarly research is available on this page.
