Darius (Raymond) Wong
A novice in the archival world.
I obtained my BA from the University of Hong Kong, where I exploited utilised my American Studies major (instead of my other major in Academic Music) to complete my independent research in radio-broadcast classical music; likewise, I aim to gain experience with music archives through this MSc IM&P course at the University of Glasgow.
Besides having cataloguing experiences from my part-time work in youth orchestra libraries and a recruiting firm, I have been introduced to museum education through interning with the Kinsey African American Art and History Collection.
