Judit joined DJCAD as a Lecturer and Baxter Fellow in Curatorial Practice (Art & Design) in 2020 and now works as the Director of the new MFA Curatorial Practice (Art&Design) Programme at DJCAD, which she wrote and developed, with partners including the V&A Dundee, and the University of Dundee Museum and Archives.

With a background in Art History (ELTE, Budapest, 2002), Arts Management (Dartington College of Arts, University of Plymouth, 2005) and a practice-led and AHRC-funded collaborative Doctoral Award in curatorial practice (Aberystwyth University, 2017) Judit has experience as a curator, creative producer, part-time academic, researcher, writer, and editor independently and in a variety of roles in artist-led organisations (Artpool, Budapest; East Street Arts, Leeds; WAVEparticle, Glasgow) and Higher Education Institutions (MA Curating Award lead, Dartington College of Arts; Fine Art Lecturer and Creative Fellow, York St John University; Associate Tutor then Lecturer, MLitt Curatorial Practice at The Glasgow School of Art).

Her other interests include curatorial education, practice-as-research in curating, and creating sustainable frameworks in the arts through HEI-industry partnership work.
