I am a versatile, creative, and strategic leader with a foundation in art history and classical music. My background across art forms, augmented by experiences working in the museum, dance, auction house, and music spaces, have afforded me opportunities to develop and fundraise for programming spotlighting artists asking rigorous questions. I also have extensive experience navigating programmatic and philanthropic partnerships with foundations, corporations, individuals, and government agencies.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to uplifting socially engaged work, including youth education initiatives and commissions by emerging to mid-career artists. My specialization is in time-based media and performance.
On the programming side, I have worked alongside colleagues to produce 300+ performances, lectures, symposia, readings, and film screenings. I am also a classically trained pianist and dancer, which allows me to appreciate the creative process firsthand.
Available on a contract basis to support your mission through grant writing, strategy development, and artistic programming.
