My practice is at the intersection of architecture, urban planning, and human rights. In 2005, I founded the Foundation for Achieving Seamless Territory, an award-winning think-tank that researches and makes visible systemic violence that is manifested in the built environment. At FAST, we develop and advocate for design alternatives that empower marginalized communities and improve the quality of the built environment. Our projects promote social and environmental justice. In addition to my practice at FAST, I regularly teach at Harvard University Graduate School of Design and direct the Art, Design, and the Public Domain MDes area.
