When your client asks “what should I do with all these things?”-meaning furniture, paintings, prints, rugs, silverware, books, household goods etc, you can call me. I am a first responder. I identify items with the highest market value and advise clients where to sell them.

How can I do this? I have spent most of my working life helping people understand the market value of their Illiquid assets, and helping them either sell the items they want to or must sell, or advising them about other options. For lower value items, I work with vertically integrated moving managers who will inventory, organize, pack, and ship items to another home, or sales venue.

My BA in Art History, Masters Degree studies at NYU, and my work for Sotheby’s give me a unique understanding of the art market. I was VP and Department Head of Consignment Services, where I determined if an estate or a group of items would be auctioned at Sotheby’s. By working with specialists in every field, I gained a deep understanding as a generalist. Later on I worked for J. Walter Thompson, selling their 8000 item collection of paintings, prints, furniture, sculpture, and photographs, accumulated over many years from their global offices.

Let’s have a conversation about how my work can enhance yours.
