I am a nonprofit and museum leader with more than 12 years of experience in cultural, art, and civic education, collections, and administration. I have successfully built long-lasting programs for museums and other nonprofits such as the Kindergarten - 3rd-grade literacy program at the Penn Museum, civic and art tours for blind and visually impaired guests at the New Jersey State House Historic Site, and art programming around New Jersey's Public Art collection in partnership with the Arts Council of New Jersey. I also have experience teaching both in the classroom and in gallery settings, where object-based learning is a focus.
In addition, I successfully lead teams in developing and delivering creative programs that are inquiry-based and address different learning styles. I love working with the community; I am particularly passionate about working with students in the city of Philadelphia as I am a proud Philadelphia public school graduate.
