Curatorial and Gallery Assistant at Artemiro Gallery, supporting artists and collectors and contributing to post–art fair sales.

Message

At Artemiro Gallery, I present artists’ practices to collectors and contribute to sales conversations and engagement. I’ve also supported operations at the Scope Art Show and the Affordable Art Fair.

As a Student Exhibition Curator with CEA CAPA Education Abroad, I curated an exhibition featuring around 50 participants and designed a three-room experience. At Corner Gallery, I proposed and curated Vivere e Scoprire, managing its promotion, installation, and deinstallation.

My work also spans art communications and digital arts education. At Salon Privé MC, I researched and contacted potential partners and created partnership proposals, sales plans, and outreach tracking workflows; at Terra Education, I redesigned and taught a Digital Arts elective.
