Inclusive Teaching

Whether working with children, adolescents, or adults, I believe that education should instill people with the skills, knowledge, and practice to become self-directed agents of their own futures. Theatre and dance provide a forum for students to become confident in their bodies and voices, enabling them to develop a commanding presence that will serve them in life. These mediums also provide students to develop competency in 21st-century career skills such as collaboration, communication, and creativity. My classroom connects students to themselves, their peers, and their world in ways that will best prepare them for a life of success.

    Primary Education

    Drama and creative-based engagements provide K-6 students opportunities to harness their innate gift of imagination and curiosity.

  • Secondary Education

    Developing theatrical skills builds compassion, innovation, and collaboration among 7-12th grade students, essential skills for the 21st century learner.

  • Higher Education

    Emphasizing critical thinking and embodied practice, college students gain knowledge through experiential learning which they can apply in professional settings, through socially engaged work, or in a classroom.
