About me

My photo
Jennifer
Cleveland, Ohio, United States
I have a specialized consulting practice helping museums and cultural organizations engage existing and potential audiences by developing compelling experiences and utilizing new media to cultivate the next generation of enthusiastic patrons. I also serve on the Board of the Ohio Museums Association, currently as Treasurer, and teach a course in Exhibition Development and Design at Walsh University. In addition to my professional work, I spend lots of time chasing around after my two young daughters, visiting parks, museums, and places of interest with our family and watching their inquisitive minds soak up the world around them.
