I am an art curator with over 10 years of experience working across contemporary art, cultural organisations, and creative programmes internationally. Clients bring me in to evaluate and direct creative work, develop curatorial strategy, and translate artistic vision into something that can actually be presented, delivered, or sold with the judgment and rigour that comes from a decade inside the art world. I have led and supported exhibitions, digital cultural projects, and multi-partner programmes for galleries, museums, foundations, and global platforms. My work involves end-to-end coordination, planning and scheduling, documentation and reporting, budget tracking, stakeholder communication, and delivery across multiple timelines and collaborators. Alongside curatorial strategy and research, I provide reliable operational support so creative projects don't stall between vision and delivery. I manage workflows, calendars, meetings, and shared documentation for distributed teams in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments. I work well with minimal supervision and value clear communication and collaborative problem-solving. I am available for: art evaluation and curatorial consulting, exhibition curation and project management, and remote operational support for creative and cultural teams.

I'm a curator, art consultant, and writer with over ten years of experience working with museums, designers, corporate collectors, and artists. My journey has been about curating meaningful exhibitions, creating art collections that reflect the brand and personalities of their collectors, and helping artists find their niche and thrive. Through my exhibitions, I harness my flair for bringing history to life through art. I specialize in unearthing historical gems from archives, pairing them with historical and contemporary artworks, and translating those into engaging narratives. While my heart is in the arts, my mind is finely tuned to the business side of things, ensuring every artistic pursuit aligns with financial and strategic savvy. Early in my career, I worked in finance for a Fortune 500 company, pricing multi-million dollar defense contracts, before I left to complete my Master’s in Visual, Material, and Museum Anthropology at the University of Oxford. Whether you’re a museum, business, private collector, or artist, I'm here to help you tell your story through art, with a seamless blend of passion and professionalism. I am ready to assist you with: - Curating art collections for your home, workplace, or hospitality project. - Writing engaging, well-researched articles on art or historical subjects. - Crafting or editing artist bios or statements. - Advising artists on how to best present their work to consultants and curators. - Guiding artists on best business practices, including pricing, marketing, and branding. - Curating exhibitions, managing all phases from concept development through to installation.

I’ve spent the last 15 years working as an Art Director and Motion Graphics designer for demanding clients, from advertising agencies to top-tier museums. Throughout my career, the challenge has always been the same: how to grab attention from the first second and explain complex ideas without losing the viewer. Lately, I’ve been applying this cinematic and storytelling approach to help B2B and SaaS companies. Taking a dry software interface or a complex tech concept and turning it into a dynamic, engaging visual piece is what I do best. My workflow is a bit different from the standard. I use a hybrid approach that combines traditional 2D animation in After Effects with advanced AI generation. I don't use AI to cut corners or mass-produce content; I use it to expand creative possibilities and achieve visual styles that are usually out of reach for standard budgets. The key, however, is always the final human touch—the meticulous post-production, color grading, and sound design that make a piece truly premium. Working with me is straightforward. Having 15 years in the industry means I understand tight deadlines, clear communication, and the importance of delivering polished, broadcast-ready files without needing constant supervision. I’m based in Spain (CET timezone) and fully set up for seamless asynchronous work with US and global clients. If you have a project that needs a serious visual upgrade, send me a brief message and let's see if we're a good fit.
