I'm cofounder of the Wikimedians of Los Angeles user group and regional ambassador for Art+Feminism, a global DIY campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of women, feminism, and the arts. Since July 2013, I've led Unforgetting L.A., a series of meetups focused on building a more accurate and diverse online history of art in Southern California. We meet throughout the year at art museums and institutions across Los Angeles area including the Getty, LACMA, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, California African American Museum, Hammer Museum, MOCA Los Angeles, MAK Center for Art and Architecture, Women's Center for Creative Work, and more.
Offline, I'm cofounder/editor (with Thomas Lawson) of East of Borneo, an online magazine, book imprint, and crowdsourced multimedia archive of West Coast contemporary art and its history, supported by the School of Art at CalArts. I also edit museum catalogues and other print/digital content for museums including the Marciano Art Foundation, MOCA Los Angeles, and the Japanese American National Museum.
If you're in the Los Angeles area and want to connect with our community, please join us at WP:Meetup/LA! You can also reach out to me on my talk page, and I co-moderate the Wikipedia Los Angeles Facebook group and Twitter account.
