Hi! I am Allegra Albanese and I am from London, though I am a U.S, UK, and Italian citizen ! I recently graduated from Cornell University with a bachelors degree in Art History and a minor in Italian. I have experience working as an intern at The Watermill Center, The Cultivist, Berntson Bhattacharjee Gallery, as well as co-founding a personal styling company called Daughters of the Time. I am currently looking for a full-time creative opportunity in New York City --- anything from gallery assistant to creative marketing.
