Identifying and developing potential is what brings me joy in life. I have found this applies as much to the world of art materials as it does to people. I have taught full time for several years, and I have painted full time for several years; but I was never fully satisfied with my career until I began splitting my time between both activities. 

The other thing that brings me joy is figuring things out. From the properties of light and space, to the theory of music and cooking, to the software used to make films and record music. I have always been a learner first and I try to approach teaching from the perspective of a student.

​I recieved a masters degree in art education from Southern Oregon University in 2006. I teach fine art, commerical art and multimedia classes part time at the high school level. I organize workshops. I coach individuals in the subjects listed above. I guide groups of artists to my favorite painting spots and I do design and color related consulting work.
