Since I was a freshman in college I have tirelessly dedicated myself to supporting improvised, experimental, and creative music through curatorial work. My curatorial practice has evolved into an essential part of my work.
Current Curatorial Projects
-Queer Trash (with Richard Kamerman)
founded by myself and sound artist Richard Kamerman around 2015 as a means of creating a queer community through experimental performance practices. Queer Trash was awarded the 2018 Suzanne Fiol Curatorial Fellowship at Issue Project Room and has since presented work all over NYC including MoMA/PS1 and more.

-Outlier (with Brandon Lopez)
founded just before the pandemic and finally came to full fruition in 2023. Outlier focuses on supporting improvised music and the spaces that present it, focusing on showcasing the most radical improvisers from around the world. Since 2023 we have based our events out of the Williamsburg bookstore, record shop, and community space, The PIT (Property is Theft) at 411 South 5th Street.
