As a Ph.D. student in Visual Arts: Philosophy, Aesthetic, and Art Theory at IDSVA my work looks to understand the fluid evolution of art and aesthetics through philosophy and critique. Trained as an art historian and theorist I bring to ¹ú²ú¾çÂ鶹¾ç an ambition to change the way art history is taught. I'm an educator that thrives to innovate the classroom. I earned an M.A. in Modern Art History, Theory, and Criticism from Azusa Pacific University and a B.A. of Art History from the University of California Riverside. I am an author, a blogger, I've hosted an art history podcast.
