Hey there! My name is Mary, and I am in my fifth year of my doctoral program here at Mizzou. My earned my undergraduate degree from Mizzou a longgg time ago in Art History and Archeology, and my MA degree in Arts Leadership from the University of Houston. My research focuses on Contemporary Black Quilting and its relationship to Black Visual Culture. I love all things stationery, orange cats, baking, and yes, I did catch that lobster I am holding.
