OVERVIEW
I have traveled the world extensively over 15 years selling masterwork collections to an international clientele on cruise ships and resorts around the globe. I elevated clients experience by introducing them to world class artists and multi million dollar museum quality art. I am a goal oriented professional with an entrepreneurial mindset and strong ability to create and maintain long lasting client relationships and increasing revenue. I create a comfortable collecting/buying atmosphere while in a high pressure, fast paced auction environment. I have a passion for people and have traveled the world with my clients beside a dynamic sales team. I have an innate ability to put clients at ease and make them understand that their needs are always paramount. I have an eye for detail and am creative with product display, creating visual stimulation, and sparking conversation. I seek out buying signals and ask the questions that will ignite the sale.
