Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture, University of Virginia
Associate Fellow
I joined the Institute while a PhD student at University of Virginia, making the case to include an art and architectural historian among a distinguished interdisciplinary community mostly dominated by social scientists and political philosophers. I have been an Associate Fellow since 2011, involved in research groups on topics such as the Human Person and Technology and now the lead scholar for the Thriving Cities Lab.
The Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture is an interdisciplinary research center and intellectual community at the University of Virginia committed to understanding contemporary cultural change and its individual and social consequences, training young scholars, and providing intellectual leadership in service to the public good.
The Institute's mission is to establish the most highly regarded and influential scholarly center in the world for the analysis of contemporary cultural change and its consequences.
