Welcome to the transformative world of arts integration! As a dedicated consultant, I have the privilege of contributing to reshaping education through creativity, innovation and arts integration. I have worked with teachers of children as young as 6 weeks and educational leaders at top research universities. Each professional development session I design is custom tailored to the meet the needs of the students, teachers, and administrators I serve.

I have worked with individual schools and school districts committed to enhancing literacy skills by creating an immersive and engaging learning experiences through the integration of the arts. As a consultant, I not only presented dynamic demonstration lessons but also led hands-on professional development training for classroom teachers, empowering them with the tools they need to make literacy an artistic journey. I also served as a coach, guiding and supporting classroom teachers as they embarked on the exciting journey of implementing arts integration in their classrooms.

I have also worked with top research universities integrating music into STEM education – Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. I create and teach workshops and lessons fusing the arts and STEM subjects as a catalyst for curiosity and exploration. Teachers and students enjoy modeling with sound, participating in dynamic lessons, and exploring the ways the arts can be used to enhance learning in science, technology, engineering and math.

I believe in the transformative power of the arts to elevate education. Join me in creating classrooms that are vibrant hubs of inspiration.
