Writing is something that I enjoy doing and that helps me to process what I’m thinking through. I often incorporate visual imagery into ideas that I’m expressing through writing, and I sketch and draw a lot as I’m working through ideas. To date, my published writings have either related to arts and interdisciplinary education, or to my research work at Project Zero. The biggest of these projects is a book that I coauthored with Liz Dawes Duraisingh in 2021 called Inquiry-Driven Innovation: A Practical Guide to Supporting School-Based Change.
