I research, write, edit, curate, and (sometimes!) speak.

My interests include:

innovative forms of property and ownership, equitable infrastructure design, emergent governance practices, community-led housing, regenerative agriculture, and the relationship between degrowth and knowledge production.

Currently, you can find me working on an open source affordable land standard at Open Systems Lab. Before this, I was editing and curating things largely to do with cultural infrastructure at CTM Festival. I'm also learning to build things with code.
