What i teach
My classes and workshops are hands-on and built for people who want to make something. Drawing on my training in jewelry and metalsmithing, I teach practical art and craft skills in a supportive setting where beginners are welcome and experienced makers can go deeper. Every session is designed around the group in the room, with clear instruction, good tools, and room to experiment.
how i teach
Years in metalsmithing and production taught me that skill comes from clear process and the freedom to make mistakes. I start by learning who my participants are and what they want to create, then shape the session around them. Students leave with something they made themselves and the confidence to keep going.
Community Art Education
I am a community art educator, trained in program design, facilitation, and building inclusive, accessible creative spaces. If you’re an organization or school looking for a workshop leader or a series for your community, I’d be glad to talk about what would serve your group
