For over 20 years, I have worked as an Executive Director of arts organizations. I was the first Executive Director of: Harcourt House Arts Centre, the Art Gallery of St. Albert, SNAP (Society of Northern Alberta Print Artists) and now I am the first Executive Director of the Edmonton Short Film Festival (ESFF). It was and is exciting and challenging to be involved with these organizations in their initial stages of operation and to ensure their continued successful growth. No day is ever the same: always new challenges, obstacles, and ideas that add spice and flavour to the job. Multi-tasking is paramount, as is the ability to change roles quickly. Each organization brought with it new experiences, people, and communities. Throughout my arts management career, I maintained my work as a professional visual artist and I have been exhibiting my artwork at public and artist-run galleries throughout Alberta since 1991.
