As Executive Director of HCSV, I am responsible for providing strategic leadership with a clear sense of purpose and direction for the Village staff, board, and community. As the face of the organization, I am responsible for building authentic relationships with the community by regularly communicating with civic leaders and public officials and developing and nurturing partnerships with community groups, and the Cape May Country nonprofit and business communities to ensure the Village is seen as a cultural and educational resource. I ensure widely held museum and public history best practices are followed in the care and stewardship of Village collections and all matters related to the Village’s operations, finances, and strategic priorities including Historic Cold Spring Village’s commitment to inclusion and community building.
