Art Connects Us

Art has the power to ignite curiosity, foster critical thinking, and build connections across cultures—and as the School Programs Educator at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, I’m committed to making this a reality for every student. With a background in art education, I have worked extensively in public and independent schools, including Montessori settings, where I’ve developed and led art programs that place students at the center of their learning experience.

In my role at the Gardner, I design educational programs that blend art history with contemporary, student-centered approaches, focusing on inclusivity and cultural relevance. Through Teaching for Artistic Behavior (TAB) and Visual Thinking Strategies, I aim to inspire teachers and students to see themselves as active participants in art, creativity, and expression.
