ABOUT ME!
This will be my 4th year teaching Art at Tustin High School and I am very excited to begin this school year.
I love ceramics and I love teaching... which makes this my dream job and I will try my best to get you as excited about clay as I am. I grew up in Long Beach California and I have my Bachelor in Fine Arts from CSULB with a emphasis in ceramics. After I received my BFA I taught swimming lessons to babies for 3 years and travelled around Europe when ever I could. I then decided to go back to school and get my teaching credential.
I love the water and I was a swimmer in high school. I also surf, scuba dive, wakeboard, and snowboard. I love being active and try new things when ever I can.
I enjoy using technology and I hope that you use this website as much as possible to learn more about ceramics. There are also a bunch of ceramic artists on Instagram that I hope you will follow.

WHY CERAMICS?
My Reasons:
- It helps me calm my thoughts and has been a coping strategy for me during times of trauma.
- For some of you Ceramics will also be a way to cope with this stressful life, and I want to share this with you.
- I care about you and I want you to feel successful and understood while you are here at Tustin.
- Work ethic is something that is highly desirable in the work place and this class is a fun way to develop this work ethic.
- Ceramics is one of the few hands on classes we have and this is your chance to learn and move!
