Meet the Teachers  at Southeastern La University Lab School (Hammond, Louisiana)

Now in my 17th year, with my certification and Masters in Education, I?m still learning and growing, always investigating new ways to assist my students in their creative endeavors in order to express themselves. I believe that communicating with others is extremely important to life and art communicates. I want to acknowledge my colleagues in the Louisiana Art Education Association, our professional organization. From our collaborations, I have learned a great deal, and working together, we all benefit, art teachers and our students. Everyone has a story; it is the fabric of life. I want to instill curiosity and enthusiasm for learning into my students, creating life-long learners. The world is changing and we have to give our students the skills to become creative problem-solvers using divergent thinking for multiple solutions. Send compliment
