Who I Am…

I graduated from the University of Southern California with a degree in Non-Governmental Organizations (emphasis in creative education and the arts) before pursuing a multiple subject teaching credential through CSUSM. Shortly after, I worked in the Carlsbad Unified School District as the Art Teacher. The following year, I was offered a position rotating across three Title I schools in Escondido Union where I helped the district launch their brand new Enrichment Wheel Art Program and taught over 1,600 kids. In 2024, I was offered my dream job with the school district I attended as a I child and am presently the Art Teacher at two K-6th elementary schools.

In 2024, I completed my second single subject credential in K-12th Art. So far I’ve taught over 3,500 students in grades TK through 6th grade and had the opportunity to help build two different art programs and curriculum which will hopefully continue to provide opportunities for students to engage with and create hundreds of pieces of art.
