Across grassroots movements, serving in a variety of roles and capacities I have been engaged in cultural equity strategy for over a decade as thinking partner, advisor, and consultant. Utilizing a Critical Race Theory and Social Justice lens since college, I have always approached the work of museums and nonprofits to disrupt systems of discrimination. Having cut my teeth at culturally-responsive institutions, I am constantly and consciously engaged in cultural equity. I am formally recognizing this as "work" counting from my first payment for doing change-work. I center my work in racial equity as a necessary principle to guide us to collective liberation.You can find my writings and thought leadership on these subjects across the internet:- Museum-Id.com- MuseumAction.org- Curator JournalI have been honored and privileged to collaborate with such organizations as:- Museum as Site for Social Action- Empathetic Museum- Museums and Race
