About
During my career, I have had the opportunity to work in the fields of art & design. I owned and operated two art galleries for 9 years in New York City. While simultaneously maintaining a full time senior design position working on various European & US luxury brands, as well as local cultural institutions, at graphic design firms during the my past twenty years.
Idealy I am looking to expand my career combining my art and design knowledge as well as the cultural and managerial traits I have formed in recent years into one challenging job. -
