"I enjoy creating a shared space for information and experimentation where students can generate the momentum that propels them into a robust, self-generative practice. Through carefully-structured group actions and individual projects, participants are presented with opportunities to formulate questions whose solutions lay deeper within the creative process. The resulting insights have the strength and flexibility to thrive and grow over the course of a career and a lifetime."
