I’ve always been an organizer at heart, with a deep passion for photography, art, and literature. My career began as a professional photographer, working with major magazines and capturing stories through my lens. Over the past decade, I have dedicated my expertise to archiving, digitizing, preserving, and monetizing collections of photography, art, ephemera, books, and other treasured materials for high-profile clients, individuals, and families alike.
After a mid-career transition, I have brought my organizational and creative skills into the hospitality industry, where I now focus on enhancing guest experiences and operational efficiency. However, I remain available for select consultation projects, offering my expertise to those seeking thoughtful and meticulous archiving solutions.
As a professional archivist, I provide a highly personalized approach to preservation, ensuring that each collection is handled with the utmost care and attention. My clients benefit from industry-leading preservation and digitization techniques that safeguard their valuable collections for generations to come.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss your unique needs, explore the materials you have, and develop a tailored plan to archive and preserve your collection.
To schedule a complimentary one-hour consultation, please call (323) 578-5353. If you’re in the Southern California area, I am available for in-person consultations. For out-of-town clients, virtual consultations are available. Prior to our meeting, I will provide a brief questionnaire to better understand your project and goals.
I look forward to connecting with you and helping you preserve what matters most.
