Available to hire
Hi, I’m Saul, a bilingual artist and educator passionate about helping students explore creativity through art and technology. For over a decade I’ve combined classroom paraprofessional duties with hands-on art instruction, mentoring kids with diverse needs and guiding them to express themselves through drawing, digital art, and design.
When I’m not in the classroom, I work as a freelance artist, creating logos, illustrations, animations, and 3D art for clients. I love turning ideas into visuals, and I’m always learning new tools to bring projects to life.
