I am an art historian (PhD, Courtauld Institute of Art) specialising in outreach, inclusive museum education and the strategic conception of participatory programmes. I developed and lead the programme ‘What Sense is there in Art?’ at the Courtauld, addressing both the sensorial experience of art and its relevance, translating complex artistic and historical themes into dialogic experiences for diverse groups.
My work connects collections and exhibitions with a plurality of communities, through discrimination-critical approaches, multisensory formats, and collaborative partnerships with schools, neighbourhood organisations, and cultural institutions. My research background — published as Emergency Noises: Sound Art and Gender (Peter Lang, 2017) — examines sound art, gender, and sensory perception, and directly informs how I think about museum space, attention and access.
I am particularly interested in collections that carry historical tensions, and in creating the conditions for honest, open conversations around them. My goal is to strengthen the role of museums as reflective, community-connected spaces, where diverse perspectives are welcomed and art becomes a shared resource for learning, dialogue, and participation.
I bring experience in programme conception, strategic development, team coordination, and sustainable network-building, alongside a strong commitment to accessibility and barrier-sensitive communication.
