  mentoring_philosophy: 'My goal as a mentor is to facilitate learning through creative and hands-on experiences. In academia, everyone comes from different backgrounds and perspectives of the world, and I find visual arts to be an exciting and progressive mode of comprehending ideas that can often exceed the reach of consuming written information. Reflecting on the writings about arts-based research, Patricia Leavy, I believe artists are practitioners of "a/r/tography" meaning they embody roles of artist, researcher, and teacher all in one. This project is designed for students to grow their problem-solving skills, offer practical knowledge of analog and digital fabrication, and improve creative research literacy. My goal is to broaden students'' ideas of research and reimagine traditions of art making to communicate their own research interests in creative ways. I plan to work closely with students, understand our mutual goals, and offer clear guidelines for project expectations and learning outcomes.'

  overall_research_project_description: 'In my academic research, I address the systems that shape, inform, and mediate our attention for knowledge of marginalized identities. Although the world of ideas is often abstract, this project is an attempt to visualize these systems through studying the use and symbolic weight of the viewfinder. A viewfinder is a basic tool that is often used in drawing and photography to isolate objects and compose aesthetic arrangements to focus the viewer’s attention. This project involves the complete reimagining of what a viewfinder looks like to confront the invisible systems that covertly haunt our world in its most intimate spaces. Students who work with me will gain practical skills through studio practices which include matt-cutting, framing, and digital fabrication.  Students will be exploring both analog and digital modes of framing practices. Using arts-based research methods they will learn how to process information in a visual way and how to express research in both written text and artistic making. By the end of the project, I hope students will come away with access to skills that will serve their own creative practices.'
