Available to hire
I am an art educator and illustrator with experience teaching ceramics, painting, and illustration-based practices. I create hands-on, engaging lessons that encourage creativity, experimentation, and confidence across a wide range of ages and skill levels.
Comfortable working with children, teens, and adults, I focus on clear instruction while supporting individual artistic voice and student ownership of learning. I maintain safe, organized studio environments and use art as a tool for both creative growth and social-emotional development. My background in children’s book illustration brings a playful, visual, and student-centered approach to teaching.
