Stephanie's reflection:

Throughout my time at the studio, I have learned how to implement my skills from previous internships and provide sufficient support to GLE. I have gained the ability to work alongside artists and ensure that their work is being represented in the best way for them, as well as learn what goes on behind the scenes at a fine art studio. My development and marketing skills have improved significantly throughout this semester, and I look forward to implementing those skills in future careers.
