    • Gallery Assistant (Holland Park) & Gallery Manager (Kings Cross)
      • Jul 2015 - Sep 2016

      I managed all social media activities for both galleries and the Ruth Borchard Self-Portrait Prize 2015 utilising in-depth knowledge and understanding of social media platforms. I also managed and coordinated all administrative and sales-related activities at the Kings Cross site for the duration of this RBS-PP 2015. Additionally, I provided counsel to the gallery director concerning exhibition stand curation at the London Art Fair 2015 and also the Masterpiece Art Fair 2015. KEY CONTRIBUTIONS: • Organised and maintained a computerised database from scratch detailing all of the works on paper by deceased artist Leo Davy that the gallery continues to use for sales purposes. • Created artist biographies and descriptions for the artworks displayed during the Ruth Borchard Self-Portrait Prize 2015. This information was presented on Instagram and became a useful tool when conversing with visitors and negotiating sales. Show less
