“I strive to provide a safe opportunity for students to experience confidence, support, responsibility, failure, success, empathy, joy, community; how to listen, work through frustration, seize curiosity, respect the intangible, appreciate consonance (and dissonance!), and most importantly how to build something meaningful with nothing more than imagination and hard work.”
