“My graduate studies at JCU have given me the tools I need to navigate a career in the arts. I had excellent professors with whom I remain in contact and who have never failed to encourage or help me, whether with letters of recommendation or advice. Through JCU’s internship opportunities, I worked with ARCA (the Association for Research into Crimes against Art) and the Journal of Art Crime as a guest editor and author, which I am still doing. JCU allowed me to improve my writing and research skills and let me get out of my comfort zone.”
