I create spatial media, conduct research & teach

My work draws together approaches from urban and environmental studies, digital art, and storytelling. I am based at the University of Chicago, where I am a Senior Research Associate in Cartography and Spatial Media at the Urban Theory Lab (UTL) and the Committee on Environment, Geography and Urbanization (CEGU). I am also part of the Climate Rights initiative. Before joining UTL-Chicago, I held multiple academic appointments at Columbia University: as a Research Scholar at the Center for Spatial Research and the Center for Resilient Cities and Landscapes; Adjunct Assistant Professor at the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation (GSAPP); and a grantee of the Brown Institute for Media Innovation. I hold advanced degrees in design studies (Harvard Graduate School of Design) and architecture (Academy of Fine Arts Vienna). My visualizations and media work have been commissioned and exhibited widely, including at the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain (2021, 2022) the Venice Biennale of Architecture (2016, 2018, 2021), and the 2025 Bergen Assembly (with INTERPRT and Climate Rights).
