Challenge


Marie Selby Botanical Gardens sought an exhibition concept that meaningfully reflected its commitment to diversity and inclusion while expanding narratives around the Florida Highwaymen.

Solution


As a Smithsonian Leadership for Change intern, I developed a research-driven exhibition proposal centered on MaryAnn Carroll, integrating historical research, community engagement initiatives, spatial design concepts, and inclusive programming.

My Role

I led research, narrative development, and experience strategy, translating archival findings into a cohesive exhibition concept presented to Smithsonian and Selby Gardens stakeholders.
