Teaching Philosophy

As an art educator, I strive to cultivate a dynamic and supportive learning environment where students develop confidence in their creative voices. By emphasizing Artistic Behaviors, I encourage independent thinking, creative problem-solving, and meaningful self-expression. My interdisciplinary approach integrates aesthetics, art history, art criticism, and production, helping students make connections across subjects while deepening their appreciation for diverse artistic traditions. Committed to student-centered learning, I strive to empower students with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to think critically, take creative risks, and develop their own artistic identities.
