When you begin asking how art can change your life — or a community, or a culture — something shifts.
Connection deepens.
Responsibility expands.
For over 25 years I have worked inside the fine art ecosystem — curating exhibitions, guiding collection development, negotiating agreements, and leading public art initiatives from concept through completion.
I work with contemporary artists, museums, collectors, and cultural leaders to align creative authority with institutional strategy, public benefit, and long-term cultural impact.
Selected experience includes:
Assisting Judy Chicago on BE NO MORE, SFMOMA
Architected and scaled revenue for Chihuly's publishing strategy, collector relations, and legacy projects
Director of Friesen Fine Art Gallery (multi-city)
Curator with Center on Contemporary Art
Senior leadership of public art initiatives from grant development through completion
I understand the patterns that shape creative authority — and structure ambitious projects with clarity so art generates cultural impact, strengthens collections, and builds enduring legacy.
Join us on Female Frequency Podcast, where I explore one core question with artists, activists, and cultural leaders shaping the world in real time:
What shifts when we trust the intelligence of our creativity?
Putting Creatives & Culture Makers On The Map Since 1998
ART ALCHEMY
Creative Authority, Executed.
Studio Leadership. You are powerful in your studio. But the art world requires more than talent.
Curatorial & Cultural Strategy. Exhibitions are not neutral. Dynamic storytelling will shape memory, meaning and community.
Collecting is Stewardship. Collecting is Self Reflection. Access a world of masterpieces that reflect your life, values & vision.
“Jodie understood the importance of our project. She helped Refract realize over 70 events with museum exhibitions, fine art gallery shows, hotshop demonstrations, art center experiences, and open studios within the world’s most renowned artists working with the creative modes of glass.”
