About Me

My photo
As a youth art educator, I am self-motivated, dependable with extensive experience teaching students from diverse backgrounds including formal and informal: public schools, museums, community art centers, recreation centers, and camps. I have always had an interest in education and learning through art and in 2010, I pursued my Masters of Science in Art Education at Rochester Institute of Technology and certification to teach in New York State. This intense, lengthy process involved both the classroom and 12 weeks of student teaching. This expanded my philosophy of education and ideas about learning. I believe in curricular integration and lessons plans in art education relating to core subjects. Also, developing research strategies and curriculum planning focusing on projects is an asset of mine. Being an art educator I am always thinking creatively and adapting to new situations and have the ability to take the initiative.

Art Kit

I am working on getting a grant to fund my "Art Kit" boxes that will go to the 11 SACC Sites in Helena, MT. I have written a proposal. I envision 8-10 plastic bins with different themed art education materials including lesson plans, reproductions, consumable and non-comsumable material. I found a grant from the Montana Art Council for $1,000, but I have to figure out how to raise 1,000 because it is a 1:1 grant. Any ideas would greatly be appreciated.
