Candidate:

Ms. Art Historian

About Me:

I have loved working in the art world. I have found, however, that the idealized version of that world isn’t appealing. After a decade of experience, including managing a contemporary art gallery and a major private collection, I discovered that what I actually enjoy — the day-to-day operational aspects of my job — requires a different skill set. I want to build arts-oriented organizations that help others access the inspiration that art provides.
