Bio

​I've made a positive impact on my community by teaching in Hartford, Windsor, West Hartford, Indianapolis Public, and various Catholic and Private Schools. As an educator and performing artist, I use song, music, movement, storytelling, musicals, professional workshops, after-school programs, and theatrical plays to engage students.

​

My life's project, "Living Legends Among Us," honors the gems and pearls of our community. This intergenerational program creates opportunities for youth to connect with and learn from elders, who, in turn, share their wisdom.

​

Some of my most cherished experiences involve working in small learning circles with young children. I love imparting knowledge and inspiration through songs, stories, fitness, theater, music, and movement. My methodology encourages children to freely express their understanding of the world with fun, empathy, and a desire for learning. I hope to empower them to "GO MAD" - Go Make A Difference - in their lifetimes.
