Experience
I love teaching. I am extraordinarily adept at reaching individual students to find their strengths and to help each individual overcome hurdles. I bring a massively wide-range of skills to my teaching and encourage students to explore materials and media to find the best one for each idea.

Hobbies
I am a maker. This means that I am seldom still. I bake, build, work on ceramics, sew, do metalwork, paint, draw, make soap and skin care products, make candles,... I am a spin instructor, business owner, dog owner, music lover, reader, listener, and generally an all-around out-going person. I am fantastic at finding a person's strengths and of encouraging people to practice, practice, practice. Art is not just about slinging paint onto a canvas. It takes planning, practice, patience, sensitivity and embracing the fear of making something that has never been done before.
