CHRIS CONNELLY

I have intimate knowledge of both sides of the art coin. I understand what it's like to be an artist and what it's like to be on a grant panel; I have lived through the sweat that goes into brainstorming seemingly impossible solutions with dire resources in a poor economic climate; I know what it's like to build a cohesive team, celebrate the successes and then lead them through change management because eventually, things change; I can evaluate programs and find synchronicity for a more efficient workflow.
