⭐️Business Basics
⭐️Accounting and Management
⭐️Marketing and Scaling

Creating community and learning is the goal of my teaching.

I work for a big corporation as a Business Development Manager and I worked as a nanny agency recruiter for over 10 years and learned the ins and outs of recruitment, interviewing and hiring candidates as well as guiding many teens through several workshops on how to find, interview and keep their jobs.  I am also finishing my degree in Forensic Accountant and I am certified tax professional.  As well as a certification through The Wharton School - Business and Financial Modeling Specialization (completed June 2023).  Investment and Portfolio Management Certificate.

I own a teaching art studio in Chicago and Wisconsin.  I operate virtually and also do in-person teaching from preschool through adults in arts and crafts. I have a background in calligraphy, art, and teaching.  I also work full time and I am the global co-chair lead for my company’s employee resource group for indigenous/native peoples - I am also a member of the Menominee tribe in Wisconsin.

I am focused on the creative inspiration and happiness of learning.  I want to guide participants to make their own inspired project based on the main project but with the option to interpret and create participants' own vision of what they think it should be.

I love to teach kids how to transform the project into their own unique piece of art based on a technique, art history or imaginative inspiration.  I love to teach about art, history and culture in a relatable way and I incorporate a project, art or another activity into every lesson I teach. 

I am a mom to two boys - one in high school and one in elementary school.  I was a preschool teacher in Germany for a short time and previously worked as the director of education for youth and children in a variety of religious settings.  I also have a yorkiepoo dog named Mister, another yorkie named Mrs. and three lady guinea pigs named Chewy, Blueberry and Kay!
