About Me

I am a teaching artist who also works with technology. I have taught art, art history, making and engineering, 3D printing, English, and also creative writing. I love creative work. I love art and I love the sciences. More than anything else, I love finding connections between different disciplines, people, and ideas. AP and IB portfolios are my specialty.

I have worked in some of the toughest schools and some of the most privileged schools. Crossing these boundaries in the US and Asia, I find people need the same everywhere, a partner and coach to explore ideas and to build a plan and portfolio for moving forwards. Let's face it, everything is more fun with enthusiasm, focus, and some laughter to make the difficult work more fun.

Education

BA, Denison University. Granville, Ohio. English-Writing degree
I did half of an MFA Poetry at George Mason University but left to work at The Smithsonian in their museum education programs.
Master's Degree at Concordia University-Portland Campus in Education Curriculum & Instruction with a focus on e-learning.

Experience / Qualifications

I began teaching Art in 1999, grades 5-8 in Philadelphia. I taught in Chicago from 2002-2012 mostly teaching art and art history to grades 6-12. I then took my technology degree and ran maker spaces in schools teaching 3D printing, design, digital fabrication, and innovation.

Since moving to Hong Kong in 2019, I have been teaching a little of everything, mostly as a tutor. My specialty is making learning fun and building portfolios and creative projects using multiple disciplines. Whether you want to build an art portfolio to get into a US or UK art school, build an inventor's portfolio for boarding school, or start your own company before you leave high school or gymnasium, I have the experience and energy to help you create your own success! Do what you love and love what you do!

Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.

I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.

I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.

In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.

You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.

Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Hello to all curious parents!
I am not an ordinary babysitter — I am first and foremost a facilitator of creative and educational workshops for children.
With a solid background in drawing and painting, as well as a TOEFL certification, I offer fun sessions where your children explore the world of colors, shapes and English, all while having fun.
In the program :
🎨 Drawing and painting classes (pencils, watercolor) adapted to each age group
🌍 Introduction to English through songs, stories and games
🎬 Discovering cartoons as a tool for learning and expression
✨ Creation of educational games that stimulate imagination and motor skills
My goal: to transform every moment into a creative experience, where the child learns to express themselves, to observe and to create with pleasure — while naturally developing their ear for English.
Ideal for curious, creative children, or those who simply want to spend a different kind of afternoon, with their hands in the paint and their heads in the stars!

📍 Home or online sessions — In Bordeaux and surrounding areas.
📩 Feel free to contact me to design a custom workshop for your child!

This colored pencil workshop guides students from concept to finished drawing. We explore ideation and visual research, develop strong compositions through sketch mapping, and apply color theory to create depth and harmony with layered pencil techniques. Students practice rendering realistic objects, plants, animals, and human figures with attention to light, texture, and fine detail.

"Industrial drawing" or "technical drawing", whether manual or computer-aided (CAD, CAM...),
is first and foremost a language or graphic communication tool with precise rules.
This language, largely standardized internationally (ISO: International Standard
Organization), can be considered a universal language used in the same way
all over the world.
Industrial drawing is used by technicians, engineers, and designers to communicate
from the initial idea of a product to its design and production. All products, machines and
Various systems are first designed and defined graphically before considering their
manufacturing.
