Hello!
I am an inclusive and arts-driven educator who believes that learning is a lifelong journey of discovery and growth. With a background as a Special Education Specialist and as a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I bring both expertise and empathy to my practice. My goal is to cultivate spaces where students feel empowered to embrace their authentic selves, while developing mental wellness literacy that supports resilience and self-understanding.
Passionate about the arts, I strive to instill joy, creativity, and appreciation for artistic expression in every learning experience. Whether through fostering curiosity, celebrating individuality, or encouraging self-reflection, I aim to nurture not only knowledge but also the love of learning itself.
