teaching
⭐️My teaching practice has been molded by my work with pre-k through high school students as a teaching artist in Seattle and beyond. I’ve taught with Writers in the Schools (Seattle Arts and Lectures), ArtsCorps, TeenTix, Seattle Children’s Theater, and Riverways Education Partnerships (in Tonasket, WA).
My emphasis is on practice:
practice (generation), practice (rehearsal, failure, attempt), practice (values, beliefs, manifestos), practice (interdisciplinarity), practice (routine, discipline), practice (engagement with the outside world and environment) and practice (experimentation).
