Teaching and public scholarship

I teach special education at the Museum School of East Dallas through Teach For America. I develop differentiated lessons and RISE curriculum materials within the school’s museum-inspired model. Previously, I taught grades 3–6 in a structured learning classroom at Bowie Elementary in Richardson ISD.

As a co-instructor in a first-year seminar, I taught tools for art history and visual analysis alongside German Expressionism. My curatorial work has also included gallery talks and lectures on Surrealism and modern art theory.

As founding president of Willamette’s Neurodivergent Student Union, I helped create spaces for neurodivergent perspectives through training, workshops, and zines. This work connects to my teaching practice and my interest in who gets to author knowledge.

The podcast brings art history, mythology, poetry, and lived experience into conversation. Its five published audio essays and written scripts remain available as an archive. Video essays are a developing direction for this visual body of scholarship.
