Hello, my name is Kelly Rangel and I'm a first year graduate student at NYU in the Department of Museum Studies. I was raised in St. Louis, MO, where my immediate family still resides, and I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2006 with a B.A. in Art History. My past museum experience have been internships with the St. Louis Art Museum, the Blanton Museum of Art (on the University of Texas campus), and a couple of smaller art galleries in Austin. I'm particularly interested in modern and contemporary art and would like to work in museum education after I complete my graduate studies. The reason I chose to take this course was because the project sounded intriguing and the potential that it has to become a basis for a museum someday makes it that much more exciting.
