Mark Leavens

I’m a dedicated and creative professional with a background in fine arts, education, and museum work. I’m most passionate for meaningful, people-centered work. I bring a unique combination of hands-on skills, strategic thinking, and collaborative spirit to every project. Whether I’m leading a team, designing a space, teaching, or problem-solving, I aim to create thoughtful, lasting impact.

Currently finishing my graduate studies, I’m excited to transition into a role that allows me to grow, contribute, and make a difference. With experience in woodworking, public engagement, teaching, or exhibitions, I’m looking for opportunities where creativity, empathy, and purpose intersect.

I’m a multidisciplinary artist and educator with experience in woodworking, teaching, museum work, and public engagement. My background includes high school teaching, leading art projects, creating immersive installations, and working closely with communities. I’ve developed strong skills in communication, design, and hands-on fabrication.

Recently completing an MFA, I bring a thoughtful, creative approach to problem-solving and am eager to apply my experience in roles that value collaboration, education, and the arts.
