Art

I am the Founder of AN EYE FOR ART, LLC. I am an independent art advisor, and avid art collector. Since founding my company, I have assisted both corporate and individual clients with art acquisitions.

Recent projects include the coordination and placement of a major commissioned portrait for an important think-tank (where I worked directly with artists Derek Fordjour, Tim Okamura and Lava Thomas, who each submitted a proposal for consideration); I am currently working on another commissioned project for a private-label wine company where I am leveraging my artist contacts for the label design of a commemorative Kamala Harris wine release.

For my individual collector clients, I have placed important pieces by artists such as Radcliffe Bailey.

I am affiliated with San Francisco’s Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) - I am an official “MoAD Ambassador” and have served on their Afropolitan Ball Gala Host Committee. I am also a member of ArtTable (the foremost professional organization dedicated to advancing the leadership of women in the visual arts) and the New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA).

I regularly attend the major art fairs with VIP entry for priority exhibition access in order to better serve my clients by providing them a “first-look” at available artwork. These fairs include the Armory Show in NYC, Zonamaco in Mexico City, EXPO Chicago, Art Basel Miami, Pulse Miami, Untitled San Francisco & Miami, PArC in Lima, Peru, Frieze Fairs, FOG Design + Art, among others.

Promoting Low-Carbon Emission Technologies for a Green Future — The Commitment and Actions of Finego Steel Co., Ltd.
In the global effort to combat climate change, the green transformation of the steel industry has become a critical topic. As the second-largest source of carbon emissions globally, the steel industry faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities. To meet the 1.5°C temperature rise target, the adoption of low-carbon technologies is becoming inevitable. Finego Steel Co., Ltd., as a key player in the steel industry, recognizes this challenge and actively promotes the application of low-carbon emission technologies to contribute to a greener future.

Low-Carbon Steel: The Key Path to Industry Development
To address this, Finego Steel Co., Ltd. is actively exploring the application of low-carbon technologies, such as electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking using scrap steel and hydrogen-based direct reduced iron (DRI) processes. By using scrap steel as a raw material in EAF steelmaking, we can enhance secondary production and recycling, reducing emissions associated with primary steel production. Additionally, hydrogen-based DRI, which uses hydrogen from renewable energy sources instead of traditional fossil fuels, generates almost no carbon emissions. Finego Steel Co., Ltd. is committed to implementing these cutting-edge technologies in our production processes to ensure sustainable development and contribute to a low-carbon future.

Policy Support and Industry Collaboration: Accelerating Green Transformation
We also recognize the importance of international collaboration in driving global decarbonization. As a steel producer, Finego Steel Co., Ltd. not only focuses on domestic low-carbon policies but also actively participates in international decarbonization efforts. By engaging in global climate cooperation, we aim to shape future global green standards and ensure our position in the green steel market.

Our Green Commitment: The Future Path of Steel
To achieve the green transformation of the steel industry, Finego Steel Co., Ltd. has taken several steps, including the promotion of EAF and hydrogen-based DRI technologies, enhancing steel recycling rates, and improving material efficiency. We aim to meet the market demand for high-quality steel while simultaneously reducing emissions.
As a member of the steel industry, Finego Steel Co., Ltd. understands the challenges of decarbonization, but we are confident that through technological innovation and industry collaboration, a green future for the steel sector is within reach. We will continue to lead in the fields of low-carbon technology and sustainable development, contributing our knowledge and strength to the global transformation of the steel industry.
