I've worked extensively both as an in-class teaching artist and an after-school director. From 2015--2018, I was the K-8 visual and performing arts teacher at Ring Mountain Day School. (Two separate classes to every student in the school! Check out the student-made masks in the Lion King pictures below!) ​I worked in the Theater Ensemble at Albany High School for 8 years, directing many of their shows. I was the  4th/5th grade drama teacher at Berkwood Hedge Elementary School in Berkeley for three years. Each year the 5th graders wrote and performed a full-length play. Each year it was an entirely different process and always incredibly rewarding. I've directed tons of musicals and plays with the Yes! Program (60+ kids per cast!) where I also taught a summer devising/playwriting workshop with middle school students.

Other programs I've worked or still work in:

• Civil War drama integration program at White Hill Middle School
• Drake High School ("Metamorphoses" by Mary Zimmerman and "anon(ymous)" by Naomi Iizuka.)
• Redwood High School (Ionesco shorts)
• Yes Foundation of the Ross Valley Schools (Highlights include: "Legally Blonde, The Musical," "The Lion King," "Grease," "Chateau La Roach," "The Wiz" and an original, student-written play.)
• SFUSD Arts Festival--Literary Curator
