Engage

In addition to installations and performances, I extend my engagement through artist talks, teaching, curatorial endeavors, and activism.

2009 2010 2011 Object/Fetish Artist Talk, Baltimore

Talk

As a speaker, I have guest taught at art schools, and universities; and made presentations at conferences, community centers, rallies, and schools. I am also developing curriculum for semester length courses.

Curate

My curatorial practice focuses on performance art with an emphasis on live puppetry in intimate settings for adult audiences, LGBTQ artists and subject matter, puppetry on film, and interdisciplinary visual art.

Advocate

As an activist in the LGBTQ community, I organized rallies and lobbying efforts in Massachusetts, which led to some of the nation’s first anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ students in public schools
