She began her tenure at the organization in 2017 as Director of Performance Programs and in 2022 was appointed Vice President of Visual and Performing Arts. In her current role, Ali guides the curatorial vision of the Center's presenting, education, and residency programs. In addition to her role at Abrons, Ali is an Associate Curator of the Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival.
