Artist Statement

The arts are important for children to grow into individuals whose lives are filled with imagination, vitality, and purpose. I believe every teacher is at her/his core an artist. I thrive on collaborating with the teachers in the students' classrooms. I bring the rigor of discipline that every art form requires for one to achieve success. I weave social studies, literature and visual art is all of my residencies. Children find my work with them challenging, soothing and fun!
