"Hello! I have 8+ years experiences as a teaching artist and educator. I like to teach simply, but with fun and a sense of humor. My experience ranges from after-school clubs and literacy programs for youth ranging from preK to 12th grade including CMSD Schools (including a long-term partnership with a STEM School), Head Starts and various other short-term engagements in various other districts.

I'm a teaching artist; this means my training is centered around using the performing arts as a teaching tool, especially for retention and comprehension in ELA/reading/public speaking. This training comes from my degree in Youth Theater from BGSU, additional trainings from Playhouse Square, Center for Arts-Inspired Learning, and Dance Exchange. I am also a yoga instructor and love to integrate mindfulness exercises into my instruction to increase focus and reduce anxiety during learning. My experience ranges from after-school clubs and literacy programs for youth ranging from preK to 12th grade.
