- I instruct six distinct Fine Arts disciplines—Welding, Digital Arts, Screen Printing, Painting, Ceramics, and Mixed Media—across seven daily periods. Through project-based learning, I provide students with hands-on experiences that equip them with technical skills applicable in higher education, the workforce, and various career fields. In the first four years of my tenure, I developed the Graphic Design/Digital Arts, Screen Printing, and Welding Arts programs. I maintain classroom discipline by establishing clear behavioral expectations and consistently managing student conduct. Additionally, I offer regular feedback and communicate student progress through performance-based assessments and grading. I also coordinate and schedule art exhibitions and performances in alignment with the school calendar.
