Welcome. I am the Founder & Principle of Fulcrum Arts Consulting, an Independent Curator & Arts Strategists, and a Public Art, Cultural & Civic Infrastructure Expert
I am a curator, cultural strategist, and executive arts leader with over fifteen years of experience directing complex cultural programs across museums, public art systems, and civic infrastructure. My expertise sits at the intersection of cultural governance, change management, cultural sovereignty practices, public space, and institutional accountability, with a focus on aligning curatorial vision with organizational strategy, public policy, and community trust. My background in sculpture and large scale fabrication allows me an important understanding of the creative process, material, engineering, and fluency in translating project milestones between artists and commissioning entities.
From 2017–2024, I served as Arts & Culture Program Manager and Chief Curator for Atlanta BeltLine, Inc., where I directed and scaled the largest public art exhibition in the American South. In this executive leadership role, I represented the organization across municipal, state, and federal government; cultivated philanthropic and institutional partnerships; authored policy and governance frameworks; and led multi-million-dollar, multi-stakeholder initiatives embedded within one of the nation’s flagship infrastructure projects.
My leadership has prioritized expanding equitable access and representation, significantly increasing the presence of Black, Indigenous, and queer artists while embedding community-accountable processes into large public systems. I bring deep experience guiding projects from concept through fundraising, commissioning, production, and long-term stewardship.
My work has received national and international recognition. In 2022, I was invited to the Berlin Bienniale at the behest of the Berlin Wall Foundation to present on monuments and cultural memory. I was named an Arts & Social Justice Fellow at Emory University and a GA Trend 40 Under 40 awardee for leadership in sustaining artists’ livelihoods during the COVID-19 pandemic.
I have received support from the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and other foundations, and was awarded the StarSeed Fellowship for research on public art, performance, and space in Latvia.
Over the past decade and a half, I have curated exhibitions and cultural initiatives locally and internationally and served in governance and advisory roles with Americans for the Arts, Public Art Exchange, Arts ATL, and as a board member of the Mid-South Sculpture Alliance. Alongside institutional leadership, I remain engaged in monument transformation and cultural repair initiatives that address legacy infrastructure and contested public memory.
