I specialize in supporting artists who make work that is not market-driven, who have hybrid or hard-to-define practices (i.e., socially engaged, interdisciplinary, research-based, time-based, ephemeral, etc.), and artists who are vulnerable to the inequities of the art world due to age, gender identity, cultural/ethnic background, caretaking/parenting status, and disability. Most of my clients have established themselves professionally and seek help to achieve higher-profile opportunities and greater sustainability. I also work with arts/cultural organizers and small organizations.

​

Together, we clarify how to frame and position your work. I offer tools and support in prioritizing and sticking to creative and career-based goals, overcoming blocks, identifying appropriate resources and opportunities, and guidance on outreach to curators, gallerists, funders, and press.

My one-on-one work is built on two decades of experience managing, directing, and curating exhibitions and artist-centered programs and initiatives for New York Arts institutions while maintaining my art practice.  As an artist, I channel the potential of magic that is ever-present within ordinary life. I believe in the transformative power of taking risks, engaging beyond our comfort zone, and of human connection and community. I apply this ethos to all the work that I do.

Types of assistance I offer: 

​

• Positioning of artists' practice, through means of visibility and contextualization.

• Writing - grant/exhibition proposals, artist/project statements, PR material.

• Career strategy – setting goals and identifying appropriate resources and opportunities. 

• Project management guidance for large-scale, multi-phase projects.

• Assistance with job applications for programmatic, curatorial, and teaching positions.

• Advocacy and coaching around sensitive communications with institutions, curators, collaborators, and press.

• For cultural organizations: program development and grant and annual report writing.
