A ceramic artist and educator with an MFA in Studio Art, I have taught university-level ceramics and drawing courses as an Adjunct Professor, developing curriculum and mentoring students both in and out of the classroom. My teaching emphasizes hands-on technical skill development, glaze experimentation, and individualized guidance, reflected in strong student ratings and successful scholarship and program placements. I bring cross-disciplinary expertise in Mandarin Chinese, serving as an interpreter and translator for university conferences, visiting scholars, and professional organizations. My commitment to education extends beyond the studio, having developed a Mandarin curriculum across all grade levels. I am dedicated to fostering creative exploration, technical proficiency, and cultural exchange in my teaching practice.
