Teaching

I have taught hands-on professional development workshops on two topics — making pre-coated repair materials and creating synthetic textures for infills — to more than 120 conservators at leading national cultural heritage institutions, libraries, and museums across the US. I look forward to the continued development of these and new topics. 

Contact me if you or your institution are interested in hosting a workshop.
