After several years as an Afterschool care provider and Summer Camp Administrator, I have turned my efforts to raising awareness of mental health and wellness to young people through creative workshopping and guest lecturing.

I have conducted workshops/lectures from Kindergarten to the University level. Each lesson focusing on drawing as a mechanism to healthily outlet feelings and/or navigate through emotions. Curriculums focus on the significance of mark making and how to utilize them along side technical artistic elements. 

Pre-COVID, I would frequently live paint at festivals, markets, and at other public spaces/events. As much as its important to teach and push advocacy, I also believe that being present and vulnerable with your creative process is inspiring for a lot of people. If I am vending at events, expect me to have an easel up! If I'm having coffee at a coffee shop, expect me to have drawing you can look over at!
