Idea & Information
​Synthesizer


​Having worn many hats over the past 11 years at various museums, I've developed an in-depth understanding of the field and the roles crucial to building progressive exhibitions and organizations. In particular, I have honed my skills as a synthesizer of ideas, bringing to the table a valuable knack for listening, understanding mission, and working imaginatively, flexibly, and concretely toward goals. These traits manifest as me being a nerd for organization (utilizing spreadsheets and other intuitive platforms to track projects),  fostering team buy-in, and performing research in support of projects.

I thrive as part of a team passionate about creating exhibitions with creativity and integrity, using resources and methods thoughtfully.

  More about me

Picture
I am an instant photography fan, and also love to read, knit, and sew––running my own tiny Etsy shop of designer fabric pouches and wristlets. I am also part of the worldwide population that loves Doctor Who (and knits while watching it...with my cat).

​I grew up in central Virginia and moved to the DC area in 2009, where I reside with my husband and two cats.
