While working in Miami, she built up her clientele to over 60 of the city's most talented artists across various galleries and exhibitions. In 2012, Wagner switched to the profitable art market of Manhattan where she continues to broaden her experiences in the arts, while simultaneously working with artists to help them take vital steps towards advancing their careers. With a deep interest in pop and urban art, Wagner has a unique ability to build intelligent and up-and-coming collections for her clients and galleries.
