Liah Cox

Conservator
Savannah, GA
I am an objects conservator who loves working on wooden and gilded objects. I received my Masters Degree in Conservation of Furniture and Decorative Arts at Bucks New University in the UK and have been traveling while expanding upon those skills ever since. Currently I am working as the project manager of a group of six conservators at the Mark Twain House (Hartford, CT). This iconic house needed in-depth mold removal and remediation and has turned into a great learning experience.
