Core PERSPECTIVE
A (short) Introduction.
I’ve spent my career working across museums, higher education, cultural institutions, and the arts. While the settings have changed, the work has remained remarkably consistent: helping organizations bring people together around meaningful ideas. As a designer by training, I naturally approach organizations as systems, looking for patterns, understanding relationships, and creating clarity where complexity exists.
Not to name drop but I’ve worked with some amazing art institutions.
Selected Exhibition & Experiential Projects
I design exhibitions and cultural environments that connect artists, institutions, and audiences through spatial storytelling and experiential design.

Digital Design
Limitless Environments
Your art institution has a story to tell that will not only engage, educate, and inspire your audience but will also deliver on measurable business goals. I am the connection point between your brand and your visitors. Designing environments is fluid and should be approached holistically to create intuitive environments that guide your visions into reality. My design work focuses on engaging visitors to fully participate within physical and online environments.
I specialize in unique gallery exhibitions that are trailblazing, rogue, or even pop-up exhibitions in warehouses, coffee shops, or libraries. Go further than just questioning the white cube and design exhibitions that are inspiring, thought-provoking, and defy gallery space.
No walls? No problem.
New Media Art Installations
Artists are pushing the boundaries of new media art. I specialize in New Media art installations that have grown more complex than a one-channel projection: They can encompass online media, live streaming video, multi-channel projections with syncing audio and video.
Digital design is more than creating visually appealing digital platforms, websites, or email marketing strategies. It encompasses design elements that focus on intuitive and diversity considering factors such as disabilities, language, and cultural differences. By aiming to ensure that everyone, regardless of abilities or background, can use and benefit from the digital experience.
