I’m a writer, scholar and documentarist and the founding director of the Alternative Toronto digital archive project. My work explores the cultures and textures of cities, with a focus on sound, memory and social movements.
I’m currently based at the Lakeshore Village Artists’ Co-op in New Toronto and work as Communications Director at the Media Arts Network of Ontario.
