I currently serve as the senior director of Culture, Community, and Partner Engagement for the Michael C. Carlos Museum and Emory University Libraries. In this capacity, I am responsible for developing initiatives that connect Emory’s collecting institutions to the cultural and civic ecosystems of Atlanta. My notable multidisciplinary projects include the 2023 exhibition, "You Don’t Got Dis’: A Hip Hop Legacy," which showcased the archives of EarWax Records, and Readers of the Lost ArKhives, a series of public lectures, conversations, and exhibitions held at Emory University(2022-2023) on the subject of Afrofuturism.

As a curator, my most recent exhibitions include Come Ruin or Rapture (Michael C. Carlos Museum, 2024) and A Haunting Between Us (Clark Atlanta University Art Museum, 2024). Both exhibitions featured the work of the acclaimed contemporary artist La Vaughn Belle from St. Croix. I am also a visual artist, and my most recent work was featured in the 2024 exhibition, Hold the Line, at the ArtsXchange. My origami sculptures in this show are presented as meditations on the themes of memory and fragmentation.

In my scholarly work, I am the co-editor of The Black Speculative Arts Movement (2019), a collection that contributes to the global discourse on Afrofuturism studies. I am also an accomplished filmmaker, having co-directed the 2024 award-nominated short documentary, Zorahead: The Life and Times of Valerie Boyd, as well as the 2017 film, Let’s Go to Work!: Chicago Steppin’ in Atlanta. Additionally, I am the co-founder of The Tenth, a startup company designed to connect newcomers and curious residents of Atlanta to the city's vibrant culture.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy from Morehouse College and a Master of Arts and Ph.D. in American Studies from the Institute for Liberal Arts at Emory University.
