Curriculum Vitae
Art Historian and Videographer
I am an Italian/Danish/Armenian Art Historian and Videographer based in Rome. I have a BA in Art History from the University of Cambridge, and an MA in Art History from the University of John Cabot in Rome. I am currently undertaking a Masters in Arts and Culture Management at Rome Business School with the aim of meeting like-minded peers in my field, and enhancing a business mindset that will complement my academic, research, and writing capabilities.
I run a Blog, YouTube, and Social Media Channel entitled ‘AboutArt’ with the aim of making art and art history accessible, fast, and fresh. The project allows me to combine my passion for art, film, and travel; with my skills of research, public speaking, social media, and presenting.
On the side, I also work as a part-time Food Tour Guide, and I have published articles, created courses in my field of expertise, and been featured in podcasts (as both guest and host).
