VISUAL RESEARCH. I specialize in sourcing and presenting arts-based visual research for books and treatments. I thrive on helping artists and editors find the perfect visual aids to elevate their narratives and bring their creative vision to life.

 

LICENSING. Image licensing, or intellectual property clearance, involves a multi-layered process of securing permissions to reproduce text, audio, or visual works of art. I work with image houses, museums, and individual creators to feature their work in print and digital projects. 

 

PRINT PRODUCTION. Creating books is a dynamic and collaborative process. With over a decade of experience in the publishing industry, I guide clients in selecting printers, techniques, and materials that align with their artistic vision, ensuring the final product is both impactful and original.

 

PROJECT MANAGEMENT. Bringing a book to life involves more than just print production. I manage every detail from the initial concept to the finished product to ensure a cohesive and successful outcome. As a Project Manager, I connect teams of creatives and technicians through clear communication, effective collaboration, and shared goals.

 

ARCHIVES. I design and build tailored visual archives for individuals and institutions, creating intuitive and sustainable infrastructures that ensure long-term usability and accessibility.

Until soon!

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, where I continue to live and work. After receiving my BA in Art History from the University of California, Los Angeles, I studied and traveled until I found myself in the archives of the Museo de La Plata in Argentina. From there, I returned home to pursue my MA in History & Archival Studies from Claremont Graduate University. I've been working in the arts ever since.
