As a Spring 2023 graduate of Juniata College with a double major in both Studies in Museums and The Arts and Environmental Science, I have hands-on academic experience in the complete process of creating exhibition designs, developing interpretive materials, installing exhibits, and planning opening events. I have also applied and honed this knowledge professionally through my 4+ years of museum experience in visitor services, presenting educational programming, and assisting in exhibits and collections work. I am driven to use my experience to stregthen communities through fostering enthusiasm for nature, history, and the arts.
