Suhair Khan is lead at Google Arts and Culture, which has put the collections of 1,800 cultural institutions online.

I’ve been with Google for eight years now. I began at Google HQ in Mountain View California, before moving to Singapore and am now in London. Before Google, I had a shorter career in investment banking and did my Masters in international development. Art has always been a huge part of my life – my mum runs an art gallery, my sister is a curator, and so on. I can’t quite remember how it all began – so long ago now!
