Exhibit Design & Museum-Related Projects

I've designed and contributed to over 100 exhibitions over my 25+ years of working in the non-profit world. Exhibitions shown at right represent the completed shows where I've played a key role. My responsibilites typically include Exhibition Design (space planning, casework, gallery graphics, production/ fabrication and installation) and Promotional Design (items presented to the public to advertise the exhibition, including: street banners, billboards, brochures, web elements, etc.). Any exceptions are noted in brackets.

​

I often team with other designers to collaborate on an exhibition. Those relationships are noted as well.
