Creative Assistant | Making Art More Accessible.

London, England, United Kingdom

About

I am a creative and organised professional with experience in client-facing roles, administration and creative environments. I am currently seeking opportunities within the arts and cultural sector as a Creative Assistant, Gallery Assistant or Project Assistant. My background includes working in luxury retail at Lalique and administrative roles within a creative school environment, where I developed strong organisational, communication and coordination skills. Alongside my professional experience, I have a strong personal interest in art and visual culture. I regularly visit museums and galleries and create video content documenting artistic spaces, with the aim of making art more accessible and visible beyond traditional settings. I am particularly interested in roles that combine creativity, organisation and collaboration, and I am motivated to contribute to artistic projects and cultural initiatives.
