6/2024: My work was featured in the juried exhibition Invisible Architectures: Social Contracts at Maryland Art Place, Baltimore, MD. The Social Contracts exhibition series explored American social contracts, tensions that exist between the people who enact power and the people who do not, and artistic interventions. 

5/2024: I contributed a Visual Essay included in book 1 of InSEA's publication: Playful Walking with A/r/tography. Playful Walking "is an invitation to engage with generative, open-ended practical propositions. We imagine these will inspire artist/educators to explore walking and a/r/tography in various learning environments, wherever the readers may find themselves." My essay explores insights gained during the creation of my animated wildflower map.

4/2023: I co-presented Illuminated Histories of the Peale Museum with Dr. Diane Kuthy at the National Art Education Association conference, San Antonio, TX. The presentation shared our collaborative installation from the Spark IV exhibition and pedagogical applications.

2/2023: Super Flower Blood Moon, a stop animation featuring the Atlantic horseshoe crab, was featured at the Changing Chesapeake exhibition in the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum.  This exhibition "asked artists to reflect on how climate change and the impact of humans on the environment shapes their Chesapeake community, how the way they identify with and are inspired by the Chesapeake has evolved, what they would want someone 100 years from now to know about life and community traditions in the Chesapeake, and their vision for the future of life in the region." 

7/2022: A collaborative iteration of Illuminated Curiosities was featured at the SPARK IV: New Light juried exhibition, at the Baltimore Peale Museum.  New Light featured work that illuminated "stories of Baltimore's past and present, focus[ed] a new lens on the Peale's building and history, immerse[d] us in animated microcosms, and share[d] reflections on the joys and sorrows of our corporeal experience as humans." My collaboration with Dr. Diane Kuthy explored the history of the Baltimore Peale as a museum of fine art and natural history.
