A bit about me:
Profile
I am writer, researcher, and museum professional with a background in fashion journalism. I received my master's degree in Fashion Studies from Toronto Metropolitan University. During my time in the program, I focused my research on two main areas: universal design and accessibility in relation to museum exhibition spaces, and female leadership in the luxury fashion industry.
Experience
I am currently the Assistant Curator at the Textile Museum of Canada, where I play a key role in developing and coordinating exhibitions that highlight the breadth of artistic expressions within the world of textile arts. Previously, I interned at the Royal Ontario Museum, working in the global fashion and textiles department. I have also held positions as a Graduate Teaching Assistant and Research Assistant at Toronto Metropolitan University (including TMU's Fashion Research Collection), and as the Global Lifestyle Reporter at HuffPost/HuffPost Canada.
