My passion has always been art.....but I have also been fortunate to also acquire over ten years of experience in business development, marketing and project management. My career path has taken me into the corporate, interior design, non-profit and art industries......Art + Business - I have recently taken my passion and experience into launching my own company, Art Local. My mission is to bring beautiful and meaningful art into commercial and residential environments while supporting the local Chicago art community. I meet with the clients to assess their art needs, present options from my network of local artists and oversee all aspects of framing, installation and art program management. My clients include small businesses to multi-location corporations as well as the discerning residential client.....As I move forward I strive to keep a productive balance between my right brain (art) and left brain (business). It is also important to me to share my passion of art and do so through teaching art to children as well as through Art Treks, a group I have started for local art enthusiasts.
