Gallery manager with experience in exhibition production, artist liaison and gallery operations. Currently managing Indelible Fine Art in Brighton, where I coordinate exhibitions, develop artist relationships and support collector engagement.

My work focuses on presenting contemporary and post-war art in thoughtful, accessible ways while contributing to the commercial success of the gallery. I’m particularly interested in exhibition programming, art sales and building lasting relationships within the art world.

I’m a gallery manager and curator with experience in exhibition production, artist relations, and gallery operations. I currently manage Indelible Fine Art in Brighton, where I coordinate exhibitions, work closely with artists and collectors, and oversee gallery programming, communications, and visitor engagement.

Alongside managing the gallery, I have curated exhibitions independently, including a month-long exhibition programme at CAST Gallery in Cornwall. My work focuses on presenting contemporary and post-war art in ways that connect with new audiences while supporting the commercial success of the gallery.

Earlier in my career I was mentored by Turner Prize–winning artist Mark Leckey through his Music and Video Lab programme, where I collaborated on audio-visual work and developed a deeper understanding of artistic practice and cultural production.

Through these experiences I have developed strong skills in exhibition coordination, artist liaison, cultural programming and gallery operations.

I studied Songwriting, Music Business and Music Journalism at BIMM Institute in Brighton. My studies focused on creative production, cultural industries and communication, which continue to inform my work in exhibition programming and arts management.

Prior to this, I completed a BTEC in Performance Arts at Truro College, graduating with Distinction. This background developed my understanding of artistic practice and performance, which now informs my work with artists and exhibition development.
