Public Art Projects

University of Colorado Boulder, Historic Renovation of Hellems Arts and Sciences Building (2024–25)
Led 25’ suspended sculpture project, as part of a historic renovation project. Coordinated across architects, a state agency, and construction teams; and delivered final installation closely matching the proposal. This project builds on my experience creating public-facing, site-responsive work in museum and gallery environments.
