Thanks for dropping by! You can learn more about the various facets of my interdisciplinary practice by clicking on the tabs above.
A quick rundown: I’m currently embarking on a grand adventure and, along with a big move overseas (to eastern France from late November), have transitioned to full-time freelancing! Over my almost-two-decades-long career, though, my tenured roles have included: Publication Editor at Liminal, a platform that supports and showcases the work of First Nations creatives and creatives of colour; Publications & Audience Development Manager at the Melbourne International Film Festival; Editor of Metro, Australia’s oldest film and media journal; and Editor-in-Chief of sexuality and gender magazine Archer.
Besides overseeing publications and projects, I write essays, criticism and poetry, and regularly speak and teach at festivals and arts events, tackling topics such as screen culture, pop culture and politics; race, queer and mental-health issues; and the creative industries. I’m also a dancer—commercial jazz and lyrical, mostly, though my practice includes ‘collisions’ of word and movement—and I’m often called on to act as a judge, mentor or consultant for arts initiatives, grants and awards.
Además, soy hispanohablante; este idioma ha sido un elemento esencial en mi camino para consolidar mi identidad como mestizo hispano-chino-filipino. ¡No dudes en comunicarte conmigo en español y trabajemos juntos!
