Are you a small institution looking for a fresh perspective on your collections or exhibits? Do you have an idea for a temporary or traveling exhibit but don't know where to begin or how to execute? Are you an existing firm that needs content support to land a new project or expand your offerings for a current one? I can help!

I thrive working in collaborative environments, and helping to facilitate museum and exhibit stakeholders to come together to produce high quality work that engages visitors. Here is what I can offer:

Interpretive Planning, Exhibit Planning, and Development

  • Provide guidance for your museum or design team on outlining an overall exhibit or institutional strategy, schedule, staffing needs, and general needs assessment

  • Assist your museum’s staff with developing Big Ideas, themes, and goals for your exhibit(s) or institution

  • Research and/or identify key assets - scholars, community advisors, images, artifacts, objects - that will enhance your exhibit or institutional story

  • Serve as a liaison for your institution in working with other consultants such as exhibit fabricators, media producer(s) and interactive developer(s)

  • Recommend opportunities for universal design elements, accessible content/experiences and experiences for young visitors

  • Craft the tone and overall "voice" of your exhibit(s)

  • Provide guidance for exhibit text development

  • Facilitate archival image procurement and artifact loans from other museums/collections

  • Provide big-picture messaging for and assist with the development of any interactive or media exhibit components

Exhibit Writing

  • Craft compelling interpretive text for your museum’s exhibit(s) based on existing material or designs

  • Work with exhibit developers to craft interpretive text

I am always looking for new opportunities and unique projects. If you are interested in speaking with me further about a museum project, collaborative initiative or exhibit idea, please contact me here!
