My writing began in the world of technology and design, where I authored and contributed to books focused on mobile development and product design. Writing instructional work required engagement with systems: how they are structured, how decisions get encoded into tools, and how seemingly neutral design choices shape behavior at scale. That early work trained me to think critically about infrastructure, process, and the invisible logic that governs how technology operates in everyday life.

Since then, my focus has expanded from how systems are built to what those systems produce culturally. I began writing essays that examined technology through the lenses of art, identity, ownership, and power, including contributions to anthologies such as On NFTs and Innovating Women. These pieces allowed me to explore how emerging technologies reshape authorship, access, and community, particularly for artists and underrepresented voices navigating digital and creative economies.

Today, much of my writing appears through Proof of Culture, an ongoing essay series and forthcoming book that examines how culture is created, documented, preserved, and contested in the digital age. At its core is a simple premise: culture leaves evidence. From memes and reaction images to digital artworks, online communities, and blockchain records, contemporary culture produces traces that future generations may look to as evidence of who we were, what we valued, and how we communicated.

Through these essays, I explore questions of cultural memory, authorship, preservation, and power, with particular attention to digital art and the systems that shape its creation and circulation. The project asks what it means to preserve culture when so much of our collective experience now exists on platforms, in networks, and within digital archives that remain fragile, incomplete, or subject to disappearance.

My writing is informed by a broader practice that includes art-making, curation, collecting, community-building, and archival work. Across these disciplines, I return to the same central inquiry: who gets remembered, who gets erased, and who gets to define culture in the digital age.

Selected essays and ongoing writing can be found on my Substack newsletter, Proof of Culture.
