One of the greatest joys of my work is sharing the art of calligraphy and creative expression with others. Whether teaching beginners their first letterforms or guiding experienced artists toward new creative discoveries, I believe learning should be inspiring, engaging, and deeply personal.

I present workshops, lectures, demonstrations, and immersive creative experiences for organizations throughout the United States and internationally. Every program is tailored to the audience, creating meaningful experiences that combine artistic excellence with hands-on exploration.

Creative Practice & Finding Your Artistic Voice

 

I also enjoy developing custom workshops around a particular exhibition, conference theme, organization, or special event.
