I am a museum technologist and digital humanist living and working in Bloomington, Indiana. I focus my work on public-oriented outcomes, and my most recent work has focused on increased accessibility of museums' digital offerings. I leverage my background in both IT and the humanities to develop strategies for meaningful, accessible engagement with fine art. Through my work, I consider questions of digital accessibility as a whole, and as it relates to art museum and digital humanities projects.
