Art Coaching Services
I have a Master’s degree in Art History, taught at the college level for 19 years, and dedicated nearly a decade to running a non-profit art space in Oakland.
Supporting artists has always been a passion of mine, and I bring a deep understanding of the art world and the challenges artists face in building sustainable careers.
