Meet Quinn
A graduate of Maine College of Art and Design, Quinn has been a passionate creator since childhood. Quinn graduated with a degree in Art History & Curatorial practice, and has recently returned to the arts sector, to her delight.
After years dedicated to luxury sales and operations management, Quinn rerouted her career trajectory to the arts by utilizing her business acumen and analytical skills, combined with her experience in ceramics, to build a small single-artist studio into a multi six figure, nationally-recognized operation. After a fulfilling three years of producing, marketing and scaling an artist-run business, Quinn turned to a role where she was able to support more artists in the creation of their work: working at Artist Communities Alliance (ACA).
At ACA Quinn has held a variety of roles, starting as the Assistant to the Director of Community learning, to today holding a Director role herself, focused on Engagement & Membership. Dedicated to the growth of creators of all types, and environments which allow these creators to thrive, Quinn spends her workday making connections, researching best practices, discovering resources, engaging external stakeholders and championing ACA’s mission of equity and artist safety in the field.
In her personal time, Quinn gardens, always orders a soft pretzel if its on the menu, spends time with her husband, two dogs and three cats, and never misses an opportunity to go swimming.
A native New Englander, Quinn now lives in Memphis, Tennessee.
