welcome.
I am a sociologist. I observe, theorize, and make — drawn by the question of how we might live more fully inside our bodies, our communities, and the material world.
I'm a sociologist who studies the body as a site of knowledge. My research examines how we clothe, move, and locate ourselves — and what those daily practices reveal about identity, belonging, and the social world we're always in the process of making.
The through line has never been a category. It's always been the question.
I live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area.
