With a background in theatre, I bring a playful, grounded, and embodied energy to her teaching, making each class welcoming and accessible. I’m passionate about creating safe, inclusive spaces where participants feel seen, supported, and inspired to explore new skills.

I’m a Technology Instructor with a background in IT service delivery and business information systems. I enjoy breaking down complex tech concepts into practical, real world skills that people can actually use in everyday life. I focus on problem solving, hands on learning, and building confidence in both technical ability and professional growth. I believe technology should make sense, not feel overwhelming. My goal is to create a supportive environment where people feel challenged, capable, and ready for the real world.
