The Transformative Power of Art Education
Art is a universal language with the power to bridge cultures and foster community. My commitment to this belief deepened after graduating from Lower Manhattan Arts Academy, where I was able to work at an arts education center called Abrons Arts Center. Beginning in the summer of 2014-2018, I served as an assistant art teacher in New York City public schools, where I sought to enhance the quality of arts education for my students. This challenging yet rewarding experience allowed me to help students express themselves positively and authentically. Inspired by these connections, I have dedicated my career to advancing art education and community engagement."
