Studio Acquisitions is an independent curatorial practice. I source, acquire, and curate fine art, vintage fashion, and jewelry. And when the project calls for it, the spaces they belong in.

My work's argument is swift: taste is a form of self-knowledge and perspective, and acquisition without it is aimless. Private sourcing, curatorial consultations, editorial writing, and spatial projects all draw from the same practice — knowing what you're searching for, researching the market, and identifying its value.

I'm an independent art curator and the founder of Studio Acquisitions, a curatorial and acquisition practice spanning fine art, vintage fashion, and jewelry. My work centers on sourcing, acquiring, and curating small collections through rigorous object research, market comparison, and written collection narratives, alongside private sourcing commissions and consultations with clients developing their own aesthetic identity. I’m currently serving as a juror for the Masur Museum’s 64th Annual Juried Competition.

My public writing on taste, specificity, and the relationship between curatorial perspective and acquisition has reached over 165,000 readers across platforms, generating inbound inquiries from readers, publications, and arts institutions. I conduct independent market research across galleries, auction and resale markets, vintage dealers, and private sellers.

Prior to founding Studio Acquisitions, I served as Development Associate at the Berkshire Museum, where I coordinated across curatorial, collections, and marketing teams, developed facility-rental policy benchmarked against fifteen peer institutions, and launched a new volunteer program. I hold a BA in History from Williams College, with selected study in Black political thought and studio art, and was a QuestBridge Match Scholar.
