For the past decade, I've had the joy of being an educator, working with students spanning from preschool to college levels. Additionally, I've embraced the role of a home business owner for the past three years. My journey with the Cricut has been a colorful one, as I've utilized it for various creations in my shop, incorporated it into my daily life, and even brought it into my classroom. Sharing the magic of crafting with friends and family brings me immense joy. Whether it's teaching someone how to create something new or sharing my own designs, I find fulfillment in spreading creativity. In my teaching approach, I strive to simplify concepts, ensuring optimal learning for all. I believe in guiding students through each step, offering clear explanations and easy-to-follow instructions. Together, we'll embark on a journey of discovery and creation, one step at a time.
