Please join the AMS team in welcoming our newest Lynette A. Turner Pathways to Consulting Fellow Sherry Xueer Hao. Sherry will be joining our team from September 29 to December 19, 2025.
Sherry was born and raised in Beijing, China, and began her academic journey in the U.S. Sherry holds a B.A. in Art History with a minor in Creative Writing from George Washington University, before pursuing and completing her master’s studies in Arts Management at Carnegie Mellon University.
AMS’s first-in-the-field program was initiated in 2019 to help support and escalate involvement of individuals from groups that have been underrepresented in the arts and culture consulting field. Fellowships are intended to provide practical training and play a role in nurturing leadership by expanding and fostering inclusiveness within the discipline of arts and culture consulting.
Program participants will be mentored by recognized sector leaders and engage in valuable training and dialogue with a professional staff that collectively has decades of expertise in the arts and culture arena. Experience at AMS may play a role in providing a competitive advantage when fellows who have been engaged in the program are looking for employment in the arts and culture sector.
