Self-introduction:
Skills
I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree as well as a Bachelor of Education Degree, both from the University of Ottawa. I have 8 years experience working as an English/Art professor/teacher at both post-secondary and secondary institutions.
I have taught every age level and feel at home in the classroom. Having worked as a professional artist, I feel that I bring a level of professionalism that is passed on to my students. I have worked with a very vast array of mediums; from painting to photography(traditional and digital) to drawing to glass making. I feel by continuing to experiment and discover, I am constantly growing as an artist.
