Footnote Research & Interpretation
Interpretation & Writing
Exhibit Text
Give visitors something to think about! I would love to work with you on interpretive writing and exhibit-building projects. I have written on many different subject matters, from aviation history and artwork, historical photograph collections, biographies, immigration, and more.
Exploration
Encouraging exploration is an important aspect of exhibit development. A mixture of multi-media, imagery, text, and task-based activities encourages visitors with different learning styles to better understand and enjoy exhibits. Whether online, in a kiosk, or a physical space, I can work with you to develop these exploratory learning experiences.
Report Writing
Do you need someone to analyse and interpret research results? Run focus groups or user tests and report on the results? Or assist in planning exhibitions and online visitor tools? I have over ten years' experience as a project coordinator, historian, and writer, and I would be happy to work with you!
Sample Project
May 24, 2016
The name “Avro Arrow” is recognizable to many Canadians, even though the aircraft never saw active duty. This sleek, delta-winged fighter jet was promoted as the defender of Canada against Soviet missiles, with the added bonus of being a Canadian project on the cutting-edge of technological development. It was not to be, however; the Canadian government cancelled the program in 1959 after just five Arrows had been fully built and test-flown.
