I bring over 20 years of expertise in developing and implementing experiences that span architecture, branding, media, technology, and storytelling for museums, cultural institutions, and corporate experiences. With a culture-first approach, I guide multi-disciplinary teams and projects from concept and design through production, installation, and launch. I oversee and facilitate collaboration between internal, consultant, and client teams to ensure projects are delivered on time and budget.
