About
I have recently graduated College with a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology. I am very passionate about Museum Studies and Art. Over the past few years I have worked as an art educator and studio support staff at an art studio and retail space.
I have also worked in curatorial positions and in creative media and film. Outside of work experience, I am very passionate about art and vintage clothing. I enjoy taking part in customer service, collaborating with a team, and working with both adults and children.
