I sit on the board of the Amherst Cinema Arts Center, where I mainly work on finding new ways of bringing artists and the community together at the cinema, as well as facilitating film study and filmmaking as tools for community education and development.

Among other things, I also write at The Massachusetts’s Foundation for the Humanities’ blog, The Public Humanist, travel the country giving talks and presentations in support of The African American Student’s Guide to College (Princeton Review Series), and develop websites to aid the collaborative work of arts and scholarship groups.
