An artist, that offers business services?!?
Art is a tough business, and I realized early in my career that if I wanted to make art AND make rent, I had to get scrappy. I dove into San Francisco’s hospitality and retail industries, quickly working my way up to operations management positions. It was a time when the tech industry was investing millions of dollars into small mom-and-pop businesses and taking them global. The rate of growth was bonkers. You can check out my full resume here.
Having grown up in the Northern Berkshires, I returned in 2017, and worked for a number of businesses, before taking the position of Business Development Director with the North Adams Chamber. At the Chamber, I helped over one hundred Western Massachusetts businesses!
I also run my own jewelry design company and am the owner of Art Vending North Adams at MASS MoCA.
I’m excited you found me! I’d love to grab a cup of coffee and chat more about how I can help your business, collaborate on an creative project, or desgin a unique piece of jewelry for you!
