Experience

1. Manager, Special Projects, East Region

   Crozier Fine Arts

   Jul 2024 — Present · Washington, DC, US

   Leading a team of project managers, art /artifact handlers, rigging specialists, monumental sculpture/oversized artifact transportation experts and other SMEs in planning, coordinating, and executing complex and multi-year projects. I have spent the last 10 years specializing in whole collection moves which are precipitated by construction projects, whether it is a renovation of an existing space, wherein collections need to be moved to temporary storage and then come back after renovations are complete or collections are moving into a brand new building for long-term storage or exhibition.
