Exhibit Research and Writing

As a freelancer, I work with Design Dimension, Inc., on exhibits for visitor centers and history museums. I research content, write text, acquire images, and help develop exhibit concepts.

Past and current projects:

• Discover Uwharrie Welcome Center, Troy, N.C.
• Cheek/Clark Building history exhibit, UNC-Chapel Hill
• The African American Archives of Williamsburg, Kingstree, S.C.
• Mountain Island Educational State Forest, Gaston county, N.C.
• Beech Bluff County Park, Wake county, N.C.
• Expanding Horizons solar system exhibit, Catawba Science Center, Hickory, N.C.
• Carolina Tiger Rescue visitor center exhibits, Pittsboro, N.C.
• Asheville Tourists history exhibit at McCormick Field, Asheville, N.C.

North Carolina State Parks

I helped develop exhibit concepts, wrote the exhibit labels, and acquired images for visitor centers at three North Carolina state parks: 

• Gorges State Park
• Cliffs of the Neuse State Park
• Medoc Mountain State Park

North Carolina Museum of Life and Science

I designed a take-home math kit for families that was part of a math exhibit at the Museum of Life and Science in Durham. I also developed hands-on activities for visitors at a staffed lab in a health exhibit at the museum.
