I believe in the power of arts and culture to educate, connect, and inspire lasting impact. For over 20 years, I’ve worked internationally with museums, galleries, corporations, and private stakeholders—curating exhibitions, directing operations, and leading creative initiatives that spark dialogue and drive change.

My work spans museum leadership, global consulting, and legacy storytelling. I’ve transformed deficits into surpluses, activated over 40,000 square feet of cultural space, and produced art festivals that elevate diverse voices and foster meaningful community engagement. I’ve also built numerous projects from the ground up—for the pure joy of creating, and to champion the stories that deserve to be seen and heard.

I support artists, authors, and organizations in preserving their legacies—through exhibitions, publications, and charitable giving—and mentor creatives to bring their vision to life. I’ve owned and directed an art gallery, curated monthly exhibitions for nearly a decade, and advised on cultural ventures around the world—from museum launches to public art installations and heritage projects.

As a trusted appraiser to academic institutions and private collectors, I specialize in rare and underrepresented collections—particularly those focused on erotic art, LGBTQ+ history, ephemera, and cultural artifacts. My work supports preservation, education, and long-term access.

I’m also a published author and regular contributor to arts and culture publications, offering perspectives on trends, exhibitions, and cultural impact. My books—Creating Profits: Artists, Galleries & Museums and Breaking Into the Art World on a Budget—are used by educators, creatives, and entrepreneurs to build sustainable careers in the arts.

I love what I do. I take pride in thinking outside the box, collaborating across disciplines, and raising the bar—not for the sake of innovation alone, but to open new doors for others. At the heart of every project is one clear mission: to lift others through creativity, purpose, and the transformative power of culture.
