 I'm Belinda and I'm a paper conservator. The thing that got me into conservation was that I love art and I like working with my hands. And growing up in Virginia, I learned a lot about history and had an interest in preserving things for the future. What keeps me in conservation is that I've had really wonderful experiences working with people who want to preserve their family history and family heirlooms and people who are activists preserving local history and telling untold stories.
