Biography

Rachel A. Skokowski, Palo Alto, is a senior at Princeton University majoring in French. She has a deep commitment to making the arts more relevant and accessible in the modern world. Elected to Phi Beta Kappa, she has a superb academic record across the humanities and a commitment to forge strong connections between art museums and local communities, especially to expose underprivileged children to museums and to the beauty of art. She has curated or interned at the Morgan Library and Museum, the Princeton Art Museum and for the Santa Fe Arts Commission, and is a Behrman Undergraduate Fellow. She is also a three season (year-round) varsity cross country and varsity track athlete. Her career aspirations are to push the boundaries of art curation.
