About

I am an art historian, educator and curator with a passion for connecting people through art, technology and education. With over two decades of experience, I specialise in fostering collaborations that inspire new conversations and open innovative pathways for learning and creative expression. At the National Art School, I have pioneered the integration of emerging technologies like AI, blockchain and the metaverse into art education. I lead workshops and custom programs across schools (K-12), museums, galleries and community spaces in Australia and Singapore, offering hands-on experiences that engage learners of all ages. My programs often culminate in innovative exhibitions, including custom-built metaverse spaces that showcase both traditional and digital artworks.

​

I have delivered more than 50 papers at national and international conferences on art, technology and education. My research on collecting practices and art making has been widely published, including my book François Boucher and the Art of Collecting in Eighteenth-Century France (Routledge, 2022). My research explores topics ranging from the genealogy of collecting in St. Croix, USVI to the intersection of AI and traditional art forms.

​

With a career spanning academia, government and cultural institutions, I am committed to connecting specialised expertise with public discourse. I have served as a research fellow in Enlightenment Studies at the University of Sydney, advised on state and federal government initiatives, and contributed to forward-thinking educational policies. My work reflects a dedication to lifelong learning, collaboration and the integration of traditional art history with emerging technologies.​
