Welcome
About the Artist
I am a self-taught artist, educator, and community arts advocate in Southern Kentucky. With over a decade of experience in visual arts instruction, event coordination, and nonprofit programming, I’m passionate about using art for connection, education, and empowerment.
My work spans classroom teaching, community events, and youth peer support. I am an Art Teacher and Youth Peer Support Specialist with Light of Chance, Inc.. I design and lead arts-based education and therapy programs for youth across various settings, including alternative schools and special needs classrooms. I specialize in blending creative instruction with social-emotional learning.
I aim to continue bridging art, education, and advocacy—helping people discover their voice and potential through creativity.
