USU Museum of Anthropology

The Utah State University Museum of Anthropology is dedicated to educating the Utah State University (USU) and Cache Valley communities about the fields of anthropology and museum studies. The museum is also a lab in itself. It is known as a teaching museum, this means that every exhibit that is currently or has been on display, was created by students. As an employee of the museum, during my student career and after graduation, I was responsible for a variety of projects. I conducted historic object research, conservation and preservation work, exhibit creation and construction, website design and creation, and outreach programming. I helped to produce the Museum's 'Saturday at the Museum' programming and coordinate community and school tours. These responsibilities required event planning and organization, scheduling, cross-departmental cooperation and collaboration, as well as promotion and marketing. I also redesigned the Museum's main website. I am docent trained. Lastly, I am the lead curator on an exhibit to display the object research I conducted during my undergraduate thesis. This project includes adobe illustrator proficiency and technical planning due to safe keeping any and all museum objects used in the exhibit.
