About Me
I have worked with my hands for my entire life, so meticulous detail is my jam. That love of precision has not only inspired my art-making journey—from portrait photography, bookbinding, and crochet, to abstract fluid art, mini watercolor painting and bullet journal design—but it fuels my love of the process of creating.
I love learning new things and adore breaking down a process into its simplest, most accessible form with the ultimate goal of being able to teach it to someone else.
Working with your hands requires focus and steady strength development, so I transfer my passion for strength training into my teaching practice. I not only scaffold lessons to naturally increase dexterity and build fine motor skills over time, but I frame everything through a growth mindset to encourage resilience and self-discipline.
Consistent practice and dedication in the face of difficulty is what builds confidence and humility. Traits that are essential for growing into a self-driven and kind human being.
I believe that modeling self-discipline and consistent effort has helped me create and maintain trusting relationships in my classroom. If I build authentic connections, my students are far more willing to engage in creative challenges knowing they can rely on my unyielding support and encouragement. This is why I’m Coach T.
