Program Development Consultant
As an art educator, my focus is on research, teaching, and community engagement through the lens of collaborations and affective entanglements. My work primarily involves early childhood contexts, where I collaborate with young children, educators, and families. Aesthetic inquiry is my preferred pedagogy and research approach, where I place emphasis on creating meaning through reciprocal relationships. These relationships are fostered by embodied experiences, expressive languages, materials, and contextual elements.
I am an assistant professor of art education at the University of New Mexico. I have over 25 years of experience as an arts education researcher, professional development program developer, teacher to PreK-8th grade students, and museum educator.
