My Work
Abstract
Over the past six years, I have worked within several curatorial and collections management departments at museums across northern New England and New York.
During these professional experiences, I contributed or led projects that helped institutions develop original research and content for major exhibitions, and maintained professional standards in the preservation of and access to these museum’s permanent collections.
Skills & Training
My skills and academic training include curatorial and historical research, content development, object care, collections management, and creative projects using the Adobe Creative Suite.
I have utilized the following archival and collections management systems: Mimsy XG, PastPerfect, FileMaker Pro Advanced, Archivist’s Toolkit, and ArchivesSpace.

About Me
I am primarily interested in the American experience of creation, both for utilitarian and aesthetic ends. I am drawn to objects and art that reveal the vital, yet often forgotten stories of life in America.
Currently, I serve as the Curator of Collections, Archives, & Exhibitions at the Sharon Historical Society & Museum. In this position I serve as the head curator and collections manager for the permanent collection housed at the historic Gay-Hoyt House in downtown Sharon, CT.
Between 2014-17, I studied at the University of Vermont and received my BA in Classical Civilization and History before completing their accelerated masters program in 2019, wherein I received my MA in History. During my undergraduate and graduate years of study in Burlington, VT, I interned in the collections management and curatorial departments at the Fleming Museum of Art and the Shelburne Museum. Additionally, during these same years I also served as a clerk and researcher in the university’s Silver Special Collections, Library Research Annex & Archive, and worked as a student curator to develop an exhibition showcasing student work, while organizing the first ever Creative Arts Exposition.
Following graduation I completed a three month long curatorial fellowship at the Fort Ticonderoga Museum, assisting the curator, Matthew Keagle, with content development and vector animations for a major upcoming 2020 exhibition.
