Welcome to ART

Meet the Teacher

An all around art enthusiast, I have had the privilege and pleasure of working for the Great Neck Public Schools for over 13 years. Prior to this, I worked as an art teacher for New York City Public Schools and for the Boys & Girls Club of America. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, going to movies and museums, walking my dogs, and traveling.

I am a firm believer that every child is an artist and has innate creativity. I am grateful to have the most wonderful job of witnessing the amazing imaginations of my phenomenal students every day.
