I write poems, fiction, and academic texts. I am an artist, educator, learning activist, dyslexic writer, and methodological agnostic. I research and develop artistic and pedagogical approaches aiming to rehabilitate practices of attention and attentive listening. One example is the project A Never-Ending Thirst: Artistic Reforms to Neoliberal-Teflon Imperviousness, which formed the basis of my PhD in Philosophy in Fine Art (Artistic Practice) at the University of Gothenburg (2021).  I am a neuroqueer person and an activist for a neuroinclusive culture. I live in open rebellion against the cult of efficiency — according to what? — the predetermined rhythms and tidy timelines worshipped by capitalism. I disrupt, derail, and occasionally nap through the hustle. I battle biscuits… and lose.
