FEATURED TEACHING PROJECTS

WHY I DO THIS WORK


My goal is to help students grow, as thinkers, makers, and people who can navigate the world with curiosity and purpose.

Challenging

Creating is hard. Figuring out how to say something through a camera, a microphone, or a piece of material takes real effort and real risk. We lean into that, through experimentation, iteration, and revision. Students generate a first draft, and leverage AI to iterate. Critical thinking is key.

Rewarding

When it clicks, there's nothing like it. A student who finds their voice through a photograph, a short film, a sculpture, or a single recorded note, that moment is worth everything. We build a space where those moments happen more often, and where students own them completely.

Purposeful

Art class isn't a break from learning. It is learning. The skills built here, observation, iteration, critical thinking, resilience, carry into math, writing, science, and beyond. We create because it matters, and because the act of making shapes(get it…) who we become.
