I am a caretaking figure with 6+ years of experience working in the arts and animation, and 4+ years working as a culinary instructor for kids from ages 2-16. I believe the youth, for lack of a better word, deserve the utmost care, attention, and respect, and my dream is to create a safe, creative and entertaining program for kids (or teens) to relate to and have the space to discuss how they feel about themselves and the world they live in. I am passionate, empathetic and meticulous with the work and projects I invest my time and efforts into. There is so much that we can do to uplift our communities and their children and I firmly believe it is everyone's responsibility, especially in the role of the artist, to be a voice and do our best to represent those who are learning or unable to find it.
