I am a curator and designer whose eye was built across fifteen years at the intersection of art, architecture, and the spaces people inhabit.

I’m interested in how objects speak to each other. How light changes the emotional temperature of a space. How one unexpected thing—a painting, a material, a shift in the floor plan—makes everything around it suddenly make sense. I have spent my life exploring how to persuade emotion within spaces.

For a decade I served as a curator and advisor at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. I led the relocation and permanent reinstallation of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Bachman-Wilson House. I directed architectural expansions and exhibitions. I shaped collection development at institutional scale. I worked directly alongside some of the most significant architects and artists alive.

That work pulled me into the private world. Collectors needed someone who understood not just what to acquire but how art lives in a space. How it breathes with the architecture, shifts with the light, and changes what a room means. I began building collections for some of the most discerning private clients, advising on residences, and shaping the environments around the work. One project led to another. Restaurants. Hotels. Private clubs. New builds alongside architects. The brief kept changing. My approach never did.

I find what is already alive in a place—its character, its lineage—and I build toward that. Through the layering of architecture, art, material, story, and honest communication, I make the soul of a space visible. I don’t impose a style. I listen. I look. I lean in.
