My editorial work often begins with what is not yet fully articulated:
an idea, a tension, a conviction, or a body of research that has not
found its form.

I work with writers, artists, architects, designers, and institutions to
identify and develop the ideas underlying their work. Projects range
from individual essays and manuscripts to books, publications,
editorial programs, and the larger questions that give them direction.

I look at the cultural moment, its histories and assumptions, the
conversations taking shape around a subject, and the possibilities that
have not yet been named. From there, I work toward the structures,
language, and forms through which ideas become legible and
enter the world.

That form is not only written. I also direct how work is seen: its images,
design, and presentation, from publications to exhibitions and spaces.

Gallery and gathering space, 1111 Geary Boulevard, San Francisco
2020–2026

Pallas began as a gallery and became a forum. For more than five
years at 1111 Geary, I curated and produced exhibitions, conversations,
and gatherings: a place where work was made, shown, and discussed,
and where a community of artists, architects, writers, and thinkers
formed around it.

The gallery ran through years of change in the city. Three of the
Bay Area’s major art schools closed, many galleries shuttered, a
nd San Francisco filled with tech and then emptied. Pallas held a
different kind of space, one where beauty, imagination, poetry,
and sharp criticism were treated as things worth gathering around.

In 2026, Pallas closed as a gallery program. Its questions continue
in Studio Pallas, the editorial, curatorial, and spatial practice
that grew from it.
