After tirelessly researching different auction houses, galleries, and museums in the area, Libby was drawn to Wickliff Auctioneers due to the company's outstanding reputation for highest quality and expertise.

Libby began her position with Wickliff Auctioneers January 2, and looks forward to learning more about the art and antiques auction business.  In just three days, she has already proven that she will be a valuable member of the team!
