Chloe and her team at UtahPresents are responsible for stewarding the iconic Kingsbury Hall, an esteemed gathering space for campus partners and community events.

A Salt Lake City native, Chloe’s joyful return to Utah followed 11 rewarding years on the east coast. She began her career in arts administration at Wesleyan University’s Center for the Arts and most recently served as Executive Director of The Yard, a celebrated dance and performing arts organization on Martha’s Vineyard. 

Chloe holds a BA in Dance and Hispanic Literatures & Cultures from Wesleyan University where she received the Emily White Pendleton Scholarship, awarded annually to a student who shows outstanding promise in the field of dance. In 2014, she was the recipient of a DanceLink Fellowship, which took her to Austin, TX to work with the award-winning Forklift Danceworks.

Inspired by the intersection of artistic practice and academic inquiry, Chloe seeks to apply rigor to curiosity in her leadership of UtahPresents and contributions to the College of Fine Arts.
