About Me
I am an artist and art instructor. I teach art full-time at Bellevue Big Picture School to grades 7-12. It is an amazing and supportive school for students who have a strong desire to learn through experiences and community involvement. I am proud to be part of this school. I have been an art instructor in public schools in Bellevue, Washington since 2001. I have taught high school Art & CTE here and Newport High School. I spent three years teaching art to grades K-5 full time at Eastgate Elementary and picked up a few art classes each year at Newport Heights and Puesta del Sol. At the high school level, I have taught drawing & painting, art & design, ceramics, photography, video production, stained glass, graphic design, digital media, Advanced Placement Art, and computer technology. As an artist, I specialize in ceramics, photography, and drawing & painting. I strongly believe that every human needs to learn how to express themselves through the arts in a manner different than spoken & written word.
Bellevue Big Picture School is a standards-based public school with a Project Based Learning (PBL) focus. We host a high school Learning Through Internships (LTI) program that provides real-world internship experiences for high school students every Thursday.
