I work semi-nomadically, based some of the time in the Upper Midwest and the rest of the time on the road.I ran the contemporary arts curatorial platform&nbsp;Young Space&nbsp;from 2014 to 2025. I currently run an online magazine called Dovetail, which emphasizes pathways between visual art and place.&nbsp;I also occasionally curate exhibitions independently in collaboration with galleries and artist-run initiatives. I am currently the lead contributing editor for Colossal. My writing has also appeared in Ceramics Monthly, Selvedge Magazine, and Arts Midwest’s Creativity News Desk.
