What I'm looking for
I am an arts professional with over 10 years of experience in the field, dedicated to fostering creativity and artistic expression in students.

I pride myself on crafting engaging lesson plans that not only deepen students' understanding of art but also inspire them to explore their creative potential.
Throughout my career, I have developed a strong skill set in curriculum development, content creation, and effective communication.
