Museum Believer.

Twelve+ years of activating art and community in the museum context through programs and interpretation with and for diverse audiences, with an additional nine years in exhibitions and collections management. I am interested in the cultural arts as a catalyst for change and as a platform for bridging tradition and innovation, past and present, individual and community, local and global, and scholarship and lived experience.

Currently, I serve the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and its communities as Manager of Public Programs & Creative Practice.
