Teaching Artist Legacy Statement
I believe in the power of the arts to inspire student writers. My"arts infused" writing workshops actively involve students with hands-on participation and multiple art forms - such as music, movement, visual art, or theater. Teachers can choose workshops in poetry or fiction, as well as request special themes and curriculum connections. Students will learn new strategies to express themselves and to creatively collaborate with their peers, building both academic and social-emotional skills. As an experienced classroom educator, published writer, and Teaching Artist, I am dedicated to bringing the joy of writing to students while supporting teachers' classroom goals.
