As an educator, I believe that education happens everywhere. It is in moments of learning with each other through art where transformative potential exists. I have extensive experience planning arts-related public education programs and developing curriculum specific arts integration learning opportunities for learners of all ages in addition to arts-based course development for K-12 and college-aged learners.
