I have written and published on topics ranging from 3D modeling and digital pedagogy to theories of slowness and project management. In both writing and presenting, I have worked with a variety of collaborators from across the humanities and libraries professions. Throughout these activities, I have been concerned with the ways in which each topic or question intersects with ethics and inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility.
