" Working on a collaborative design proposal with Detroit organizations, including my studio The Work Department and Eastside Community Network . Also working on building out a neighborhood-based identity for an ArtPlace America project called Create NED .
In planning my meetings, I have found a lot of inspiration by the network development in Medellín over the past five years. It's important that grassroots cultural and social organizations visualize their process for better communication and collaboration with different types of city leaders. "
