Summary

I have worked in a capacity of teaching students in many situations as a volunteer artist at North Fort Myers Academy for the Arts. Whether it had been drawing and painting, but also it set design, costume design, costume illustration workshops and mentoring and also in makeup design. I have worked in elementary classes working on Arts Integration projects to be a companion to reading and social studies curriculum and in middle school math classrooms teaching them that art can help them learn how multiply fractions and how to use art to learn angles and using a protractor and a compass.
