Artist and author with expertise in art history and editing.
What I'm looking for
I am an artist and a published author with a strong background in academic writing, publishing, and copy-editing. With fifteen years of experience working with various citation styles, I have honed my skills in proofreading and editing manuscripts to meet publisher standards. In 2024, I founded Double-Negative Press, where I accept manuscripts for publication and collaborate with artists on catalogues and monographs.
My academic journey culminated in a PhD from Arizona State University, focusing on the history and theory of Renaissance art and architecture. I have held various teaching positions, including as a professor and research mentor, where I developed and taught courses on art history. My passion for art extends beyond the classroom, as I have exhibited my work in numerous galleries and have contributed to various art publications.
