My approach to community development is rooted in the belief that collaborative environments are the foundation of creative success. With a focus on inclusivity and accessibility, I’ve dedicated my career to designing and leading programs that elevate artistic communities and foster educational growth.

My role as a Teaching Artist at Art Life allowed me to tailor multimedia and photography classes to the unique needs and talents of adult artists with intellectual disabilities, ensuring technology serves as an ally in their creative expression. Similarly, my involvement with Let’s Draw and the Nickelodeon Internship program has been about more than imparting knowledge—it’s been about creating spaces where diverse groups come together to inspire and be inspired.

This page is a curated collection of my efforts to build and support vibrant communities where creativity can thrive. It’s about the connections formed, the barriers dismantled, and the shared experiences that shape our collective creative spirit.
