About
Major: Art History and History
My fellowship experience
"During clean-up of the building, there were quite a few
experts in conservation helping, and it was so fascinating to see how things
should be properly handled."

Aims of the Fellowship
My original project was to research and write a
changing exhibit on Haitian Vodou Flags, but that plan changed as soon as the
flood hit. My job was to clean the artifacts after they came out of the
building. I received a crash course in
artifact cleaning and I was off to work.
