Professional conservator. Working in museums and excavations since 2015. I am interested in bringing conservation closer to the general public. Use this website to see some of the objects I’ve worked on, read some articles on conservation issues, and find information on courses and services I can offer.
Take a course or contact me for more information on conservation
Course on the basics of preventive conservation, so you can keep your home collection safe.
Course on the basics to start you off crocheting. Conservators require a lot of hand-eye coordination and crafting skills. Hobbies like crochet, knitting, book-binding, etc. are fun and useful!

I joined Reddit to see if I can be a spokesperson for conservation there. I found a lot of frustration (not mine) and interest (possibly the wrong kind) in conservation. Reflections on the conservation response and what I can do to improve.
I recently became the co-founder of Altminster. What is that? Well, have you ever felt you'd like to learn something at a higher level but can't find how or where? This why Altminster was born. Read more here.
