As a Media Art teacher, I helped to pioneer the Media Arts program in CMS high schools, recognizing its critical role in today's technology-driven world. Media Art empowers students to understand and navigate the pervasive influence of the media industry, fostering a healthier relationship with technology. I believe in the potential of every individual and the transformative power of collaboration. With the right tools and teamwork, anyone can achieve remarkable things. My classroom is a space where creativity meets technology, preparing students to thrive in a media-saturated environment.
