Bio

Anna comes to the University of Montana from Seattle, Washington where she received a certificate of Museum studies from the University of Washington. She stayed active in the museum and non profit arts community and worked in the education department at the Seattle Art Museum. In this position she assisted the director of education and public programs in organizing, planning, and promoting public programs across the museum's three sites (Seattle Art Museum Downtown, Seattle Asian Art Museum, and the Olympic Sculpture Park). After obtaining her graduate degree, she wishes to return to the museum sector within the curatorial and/or public programs fields. Her interest in art history surrounds ancient Greek and Roman art and culture, and how it has since influenced the arts. She received her undergraduate degree in Art History from the American University of Paris, Paris, France.
