Hired to revitalize the museum by reconceiving the role that museums play in their community. Building audience through outreach, program development, and creating ways for community members to participate in our operations through volunteer opportunities and by offering interactive programs. My primary interest is in making museums more relevant by creating opportunities for the public to play an active role in preserving and sharing their own stories.

Hired to rebuild the organization after it lost its sole source of funding. Restructured staffing and operations. Created earned income opportunities through formalized partnerships with nonprofits and for-profit businesses. Changed nature of the historical society by shifting away from building management and focusing on making the collection and archives more accessible and meaningful to the public.
