Hello! I'm Koven, and I build better futures for the arts.
I believe the arts flourish when vision, strategy, and infrastructure work in harmony.
For three decades, I’ve worked where art, technology, and strategy meet, helping cultural organizations imagine what’s possible and build it. From the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Knight Foundation, I’m always asking: How can we make this better? How can we make sure this lasts?
I’m also a composer and former big band leader, so I understand the creative process from the inside. That empathy shapes every project I take on.
If you’re working on an arts and technology initiative—whether you’re a foundation seeking investment strategy, an organization looking to leveling up digitally, or a team navigating change—let’s talk. I’d love to help you build that future.
Ready to launch a funding program around art and technology? I’ll help you develop, align, and implement programs that work. Whether you’re refining an existing initiative or building something new, I can guide strategy, structure grantmaking processes, and ensure your program achieves its goals.
Need strategic assistance across multiple projects or for a longer stretch? Hire me for a set number of hours per month. I can work on specific projects, act as your head of digital, help with grant writing, or fill in with other digital tasks as needed. It’s up to you..
A comprehensive digital strategy gives your organization the scaffolding it needs for future decisions. If you’re just getting started with digital, start here. I’ll guide you through interviews, document audits, and sector benchmarking to produce a practical multi-year plan tailored to your organization’s strengths and goals.
You know it’s time to redesign your website, but you’re not sure where to start. How much should it cost? How do you hire the right vendor? How do you ensure you get a site that does what you need? I’ll reduce the anxiety by managing the process for you, from functional requirements and RFPs through vendor selection and implementation.
