Chief of Exhibit Planning for Smithsonian Exhibits. I oversee the project management and exhibit development department. Smithsonian Exhibits is a pan-institutional department providing project management, exhibit development, design, 2D and 3D production, 3D printing/model-making, and mount making services to SI units.
Smithsonian Exhibits manages projects of all sizes and levels of complexity from stand-along exhibits to multi-year collaborations. We know there is no "one size fits all" for exhibits. Each project is unique and requires an individualized approach and careful coordination. Our project managers help develop the project's scope, schedule, and budget and guide the process through every stage from concept to completion. We can provide exhibit planning consultation, facilitate brainstorming meetings and charrettes, and assist with presentation to stakeholders. We can provide contracting, cost estimating, project scoping, registrarial, scheduling, and value engineering support.
