Executive Director, CEO, & Founder, EBSQ

Amie got involved with EBSQ very early in its inception, when her husband Bill, in his infinite wisdom, suggested she try selling some of her artwork on eBay. She served on EBSQ's first board of directors and helped reshape the look and feel of the site while keeping the community true to its mission to provide services and opportunities for artists who wished to present their own work to the public. Amie and Bill later bought the rights to found a company from EBSQ innovator John Seed and their lives have never been the same since!

Amie's background includes studies in Art, Art History, and Film Studies at the University of Pittsburgh, as well as past experience working with and for various Pittsburgh galleries and interior designers.
