In my own words
— MaryMy background is woven from experience in administration, management, retail, jewelry design, the arts, and the vintage industry.
As a full time office manager at one of the Nation’s most accomplished art colleges, I enjoy overseeing the daily needs of two very busy offices. It is essential that I maintain a student-centered and service-oriented approach, communicate effectively with both external/internal constituencies, maintain organization, plan for upcoming events with particular attention to detail, and perhaps most important, multi-task.
As an artist and owner of Myrtle Dove Vintage, an on-line (and previous brick-and-mortar store) vintage shop, I have my fingers on the pulse of the vintage fashion culture. I identify trends and select unique vintage clothing, accessories, and housewares tailored to my shop's target market.
