In the final days of December 2021, I was recommended for a job with the annual art fair in a new contract position as their Digital Editor. Thanks to funding from German COVID-19 relief art grants, my position was fully funded for eight months — from January 2022 through August 2022. As Digital Editor, I was responsible for all English language content for the publication's digital Magazine section; this included writing artist interviews and guides, copyediting press releases, newsletters, and social content, and editing guest essays.
After the conclusion of my first contract, I was hired again for the same position — although the new contract came with an increase in working hours and monthly rate. This new contract began in September 2022 and concluded at the end of June 2023.
