TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I've taught elementary art in public schools for 16 years. I've also taught studio classes at the Grand Rapids Art Museum both for students and adults. In addition, I've taught classes and facilitated art making-activities through a non-profit organization called Artists Creating Together (ACT.) ACT provides inclusive opportunities for everyone to participate in the arts, especially those with special needs.
