Teaching Artist Legacy Statement

Legacy Statement

As a teaching artist, I use social emotional learning and visual art to help my students connect with self and others. My lessons help students and professionals with self expression, self regulation and social awareness. My hope is that the work I do with participants will enrich their ability to connect and be authentically themselves.
