Art Teacher Bio

I am an art teacher and artist based in Philadelphia with K-12 Pennsylvania Art Teaching Certification.

In my personal art practice, I make because the process grounds me, it is my self-reflective means of working to be a better person, to structure my research, and to move through the world with consciousness. I hope to connect with others with my work, build community, and to find creative ways to ask hard and deeply honest questions about our existence and influence. Thematically, I focus on poetic or fragmented storytelling as a way to examine my identity in connection to others, and through this examination, to learn how to continually cultivate and share meaningful love. My primary mediums are photography, writing, zine-making, and sewing.
