Meet the artist behind trailwisenorth
Welcome to trailwisenorth, where creativity and connection flourish. As a teaching artist, I believe in the power of art to transform, enlighten, and bring people together. Discover the journey, the passion, and the unique approach that makes every art experience truly special.
Where transformation begins
I am a teaching artist and arts integrationist who believes transformation happens in everyday moments. Through intentionally pairing learning with creating, I design arts-integrated experiences that turn ordinary content into meaningful, memorable understanding. My work centers on process, inquiry, and connection—using the arts to make learning visible, human, and enduring.
Unleash your inner artist
What makes trailwisenorth art classes and workshops special? Each session contains background context for the medium being taught. Students will be taught technique and strategy while creating an original piece that is ready to display at the end of the class. This hands-on approach ensures a deep understanding and a tangible artistic accomplishment.
Art that empowers and endures
My greatest hope is that people will feel their time was well spent, that I was highly organized and delivered instruction in a way that was scaffolded and empowering. Beyond the beautiful art created, I want participants to leave feeling confident, inspired, and with a lasting sense of achievement from their creative journey with trailwisenorth.
