CAA News Today

As an artist-philosopher and educator, I create knowledge and experiences that poeticize world systems, engaging the public—including those early in their educational journey—in critical, intimate, and creative discourse. My studio practice centers on the radicality of intimacy and ecological attunement, while my philosophical research draws from antiquity to contemporary thought, envisioning future consciousness. I view art practice, art history, and philosophy as inherently connected, and reintegrating them offers urgently needed pathways for expanded discourse. My work aligns with CAA’s commitment to diverse practices and scholarship and the evolving nature of the field.

My engagement with CAA has reshaped how I view institutions and their potential. As a member of the Committee for Women in the Arts and chair of the Feminist Interview Project, I gained insight into CAA’s structure and the possibilities for broader outreach to individuals and institutions on the margins of art and academia. In both research and teaching, I elevate marginalized voices and forgotten histories, contributing to a necessary shift in power structures.

With 25 years of experience as a higher education administrator, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing academia today. I believe higher education is in urgent need of renewal and forward-thinking leadership.

Serving on the CAA Board would allow me to step more fully into such a leadership role, representing a broad range of perspectives, not only those within institutions. I am excited by the opportunity to help shape the future of art, education, and scholarly engagement.
