Thrilled to report that, yesterday, I successfully defended my dissertation! It’s so strange that this chapter is over, but very much looking forward to the next one! Thank you to everyone who had any impact on this project - I am forever appreciative.

Thank you to ARCE-OC and the Bowers museum, and ARCE-NC and Berkeley MELC for having me this weekend 🥰 it was an amazing experience, and not only because I got to talk about the place I love (watch here! tinyurl.com/SmithSangster)
