🖋️ Mentor, advocate, and guide: My passion for education extends far beyond the classroom. I’ve spent years mentoring students in writing, research, and creative thinking, always meeting each individual where they are. With a patient and supportive approach, I help students build confidence, master complex concepts, and discover their unique voices.
🌍 Global expertise, real-world insight: Alongside my teaching, I bring over a decade of hands-on experience in the international art market. My career has taken me through the vibrant art scenes of London, New York, Hong Kong, Miami, Los Angels and Columbus, working with Sotheby’s, Christie’s, and leading galleries and collections. This global perspective informs my teaching and allows me to offer students insider knowledge of both art history and the art business.
✨ Empowering every learner: I specialize in working with high school and college students, adult learners, and neurodiverse individuals, creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where every student can thrive. My greatest joy is helping others unlock their potential through clarity, curiosity, and creative exploration.
📚 Let’s connect: Whether you’re seeking help with academic writing, preparing college applications, deepening your understanding of art history or philosophy, or exploring careers in the arts, I offer personalized, engaging sessions designed to inspire and empower you. I look forward to supporting your journey with enthusiasm, expertise, and a shared love of learning.
