New Media

Who gets to shape the stories that guide our lives and communities? These projects bring my narrative agency framework into creative practice through arcade games, public writing, community art, and civic AI. They explore how people can question the media they encounter, contribute their own stories, and build places to gather and organize. Across online spaces and Arizona neighborhoods, the aim is to give people more opportunities to shape their shared world.
