I have just recently graduated from UCLA with a major in Art History and a minor in Digital Humanities. I am deeply interested in writing, creative thinking and also curating. With The Creative Process, I am gaining more insight into art and educational initiatives at universities, museums or galleries around the world involved with the project. So far, I anchored podcasts with the curators and directors at the New Museum and Guild Hall Museum in New York.

I have experience with curating an art exhibition at the Powell Library in UCLA, and really enjoyed it, and so I’m enjoying developing this practice this skill with The Creative Process and to gain more hands-on experiences about curatorial projects. 

I like it that the project takes in not just art, but also law and politics and entrepreneurs and shows how backgrounds in those disciplines are part of the creative process. I love to talk about how other people started their own self-made careers. Likewise, I am humbled to be able to talk to other young artists and explore the difficulties they had to go through to become successful, which is knowledge I could potentially bring into my future career in law to help better protect small artists legally.

My recent project was for my Digital Humanities minor, which was a research on Broadway Theaters in Los Angeles. As the project leader, I dug up archives of blueprints, and design material on the theater signs. We also investigated legal and business changes by conducting interviews with several experts on neon design and theater signage in LA. Our final project was a digital reconstructed augmented reality model of the LA Metropolitan Theater and the LA Theater.

I'm also very proud of my Art History Honors Thesis that I wrote in my senior year. This was a 40 page research paper where I discussed the legal implications for artists who create intangible artworks that are digitized, and artists who use volunteers during their artistic production. I specifically focused on the famous Chinese contemporary artist, Cai Guo-Qiang.

I plan on pursuing art law with a focus on institutional education programs, which I why I am very interested in The Creative Process, as it helps me learn more about people in the arts and education industry!
