I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and a B.A. in Art History. Post-graduation I studied paper conservation through the International Institute for Restoration and Preservation Studies in San Gemini, Italy. After returning to the States, I worked as a Preventive Care Assistant and Project Archivist with Historic New England, a Collections Maintenance Technician at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and later as an Objects Conservation Intern at the Toledo Museum of Art.

I am currently a Second-Year Graduate Fellow at the Winterthur/University of Delaware Program in Art Conservation (WUDPAC). I am an Objects major and a Paper minor, with a special interest in three-dimensional paper objects. This past summer I interned at the Princeton University Art Museum where I researched and treated objects from the Ancient Mediterranean and Ancient Northern Africa. In addition to my graduate work, I am also one of two Communications Co-Officers for the Emerging Conservation Professionals Network (ECPN). I am passionate about making conservation a more accessible and equitable field and I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with my fellow ECPN officers to offer support, resources, and community to emerging conservators.

In my free time I enjoy reading, crafting (pottery, drawing, knitting, and more!), playing board games with friends, caring for my plants, and spending time with my cat, Oscar.
