Summary
I am an educator focused on Theatre and English. I hope to bring my educational expertise to a theatre company or museum seeking to strengthen its offerings to students and educators alike, as well as community engagement. I hold NYS certification in adolescent English (grades 7-12) with experience teaching English/ELA, Humanities, and Social Studies classes. In addition, experience directing and managing middle school level Theatre and Performing Arts programs in a public school setting.
