- I grew up up in Queens, NY
- I love painting and drawing flowers and self portraits
- On the weekends, I'm probably learning a new song on guitar
I'm a long-time educator, visual artist, and musician. I started my journey in the arts when I attended Laguardia High School for Music & Art and Performing Arts as a visual arts major. I then got my BFA from Pratt Institute. After college I got my first experience in art education as a private art tutor and afterschool teacher. I am currently a teaching artist for Togetherhood and teach studio art at a private school. I am also a gigging musician and have skills in songwriting, singing, guitar and music production. In my classroom I strive to make every child feel welcome so that we can make amazing art together!
