How did you get your job?
I launched ArtiFacts in 2009 after 20 years working in various roles in the public and commercial art sectors. I’m an accredited federal government valuer for their Cultural Gifts Program, a vetted member of the Australian Auctioneers & Valuers Association and an executive committee member of the Art Consulting Association of Australia. I also lecture and write on a broad range of issues affecting the art market, and this expertise and insight is brought to bear in ArtiFacts’ speciality areas: collection management and valuation services.
