What is your current research focus?:
My primary research focus centers around how archival art historical evidence can aid the dissemination of information regarding works of art that are often overlooked within the canonical context. I have utilized some of this information whilst working on the "Dante Today" project, as I was in charge of writing and publishing posts regarding contemporary works of art that had little or no information on their background. Currently, I am also dedicating my attention to the exploration of Artemisia Gentileschi's art practice, specifically concerning how her trial affected some of her pieces — which often displayed violently graphic themes.

Are there any other research related activities you participate(d) in?:
I also partake in independent research activities that help further my creative practice, as most of my written and painted pieces are created in response to historical events.

Answer one of the following two questions about being a UROP Leader or your UROP background. : How has UROP impacted your time at FSU?
Please answer the question you selected above in the area provided.:
UROP has strongly impacted my time at FSU because it granted me the opportunity to independently explore certain academic subjects of interest that, within a classroom context, can often become suppressed or molded. This program has helped me set goals that furthered my personal cultural enrichment as well as my professional skills.

Please list any other hobbies or interests you would like to share:
In my spare time, I like to read, write, and paint. I also enjoy going on hikes and immersing myself in nature.
