I am a Finance, Human Resource, Management, and Sales professional with nearly 30 years of experience in the art industry working for both primary and secondary market galleries, limited-edition fine art presses, a large international auction house, and my own business. As a Finance Director, I have designed and implemented financial and accounting systems in strict accordance w/GAAP, both domestic and international. I am skilled at all A/R + A/P functions, month-end closings, financial analysis, budget and forecast development, and cash flow management. As a Human Resource professional I have run HR departments, implemented and run payroll systems with a host of third-party platforms like ADP Run, and ADP Total Source, and have administered benefit programs that include multiple health insurance options, pre- and post-tax benefit offerings, and 401K plans with an eye towards increasing productivity, retaining staff, and improving morale. Lastly, I've also been a Project Manager for a number of build-outs and facility re-locations in Chelsea and Midtown Manhattan. My core skills also include client and artist relations, curating exhibitions, coordinating art fairs, writing press releases, handling media outreach, and the efficient management of staff, operations and technology to maximize efficiency. I have an extensive book of business and depth of knowledge in post-war and contemporary art, with specialty in limited-edition prints and multiples. I am an entrepreneurial thinker who is most at home in a results-oriented dynamic work environment. I excel at leading and participating in cross-functional teams. And I thrive best in firms that believe the best ideas are just as likely to bubble up from below as be imposed from the top, and where creative solutions are often the most practical ones.
