Author

I am an author and contributor at the intersection of art and technology.

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 a deep 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.

Over time, my focus 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.

Proof of Culture is where that thinking has consolidated. It is an ongoing body of essays exploring how culture is produced, preserved, and contested in the age of platforms, blockchains, and digital archives. Through this work, I examine questions of cultural memory, authorship, and preservation, with particular attention to digital art and the systems that promise decentralization while often reproducing familiar hierarchies. These essays form the foundation of a forthcoming book.

My writing is informed by a broader practice that includes curation, community-building, and archival work, which I approach as extensions of the same inquiry: who gets remembered, who gets erased, and who gets to define culture in the digital age.
