Hi, my name is Madelaine and I am an emerging conservator. I just graduated a Master of Arts in Creative and Cultural Futures in which I have specialised in conservation, in particular paper conservation.

Whilst my undergraduate degree in Heritage, Museums and Conservation led me to specialize in the practical side of conservation, I discovered an interest in the theorical and ethical components of such work. In my teens, I discovered a love for the behind-the-scenes aspect in GLAM; how it all worked, why it worked that way and how individuals, institutions and local, national, and international bodies were looking after the world’s heritage. As a Preventive Conservation Assistant at the Australian War Memorial, I aspire to continue my interest in GLAM as an emerging conservator.
