I am currently exploring: techno-mythologies, diaspora solidarity, feminist commoning, building IRL community, and quotidian pleasures of cities via words and images.
 

My writing has been published by Kajet Journal, href zine, HAMSTER Magazine and Digital Cultures Institute NZ. I have exhibited work in online and offline spaces across New Zealand, UK, Germany, Spain and Croatia.

For my day job, I help with project management at Common Knowledge, a not-for-profit worker cooperative of technologists, designers, researchers and facilitators, who use digital technologies to multiply the impact and capacity of social movements. 
 

I also co-run Broad Bikez: a not-for-profit providing maintenance, repair and education by and for women and LGBTQ+ people.
