About Me
​

"Education is light, lack of it darkness."

Welcome to my digital teaching portfolio.  I am currently finishing my student teaching program at East Greenbush Central School District in middle school Art.  I have a B.S. in Psychology with a dual major in Art from SUNY Oneonta.  I am currently earning my Master of Education in Secondary Education from Grand Canyon University.  I am in the process of completing certification to teach Art in New York State.  I value creativity in education because it allows for positive learning experiences that infiltrate's all subjects in an expressive way.  Art is a place to fail forward.  It instills growth through exploration, experimentation, and engagement with the task at hand.  I value process over product in the art room.  This emphasis creates engaged learners instead of fear of a blank canvas.  Education is at its best when students have autonomy through guided instruction.  My Art class encourages student centered learning and creative expression.  I hope you enjoy viewing my portfolio and get a sense of what I am excited to contribute to the educational environment.
