Teaching Experience

I am a certified trauma-informed teaching artist (Bartol Foundation TIPTA 2024). Currently I teach at Philly Art Center and Salamander Arts Aftrerschool Program. Teaching represents a bridging of my passion for childcare work and art making. My pedagogy is informed by the works of scholars like bell hooks and Paolo Freire, decolonial theory, anti-racism, anti-sexism, disability justice, and queerness. I strive to be in service of artist participants, facilitating an emotionally present, non-judgemental environment, designing open ended/participant directed practice and learning.
