About the work
I work in systems.
Not software. Not abstractions.
The real, lived systems that shape how creative and institutional work actually gets done.
That means I work on:
Operational design inside cultural organizations
Translation between creative process and institutional structure
Collaborative practices that hold up in real-world constraints
Studio-led projects that explore how systems can be humane and usable
I don’t turn creatives into business people.
I don’t soften business into something it’s not.
I stay at the threshold — where structure meets story, and ideas become usable.
What this practice looks like
This studio holds both open and embedded work.
Some projects are long-term institutional partnerships.
Some are collaborative experiments.
Some are public-facing, like the Real World Ops Clinic.
Some stay inside — part of the invisible machinery that makes cultural work possible.
I work with:
Museums and cultural institutions
Independent creatives building operational ground
Systems-minded people navigating roles they weren’t trained for
This is not coaching.
It’s not strategy consulting.
It’s not training.
It’s something in between — a practice in shaping how systems are lived.
About me
My background spans:
Creative production
Organizational design
Systems and operations inside cultural, civic, and hybrid spaces
I’ve been the person with the idea, and the one responsible for making it real.
This studio is where those two sides meet.
What I believe (and build around)
Your brain is valid.
Your needs are real.
Systems should serve people, not pressure them.
Calm beats chaos, always.
Accessibility is strategy.
Accommodations aren’t indulgence — they’re leverage.
Access & inclusion
Camera-optional calls, captions on by default, flexible scheduling, sensory-friendly pacing. Tell me what you need — I’ll meet you there.
