As an art teacher and small business owner, my passion lies in helping people discover the joys and benefits of learning to be an artist. I believe that continuous learning is essential to a fulfilling life, especially in the arts, as it plays a vital role in staving off cognitive decline. This belief has shaped my purpose and commitment.

Most of my students are 50 and older, and I strive to provide them with a meaningful goal and a renewed sense of purpose in their later years. After dedicating their lives to hard work, I want to offer them an opportunity for a flourishing period of personal growth and artistic exploration. This is my "why" and the driving force behind my work.

I want this opportunity for everyone, which is why I proudly support the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America. This remarkable organization provides invaluable support to those suffering from cognitive decline, as well as their families and caregivers. Additionally, they fund crucial research aimed at developing better treatments and ultimately finding a cure for this devastating disease.
