All assignments are given through Google Classroom.  All students have access (codes below). Parents, if you would like access, please email me directly and tell me the class period your student is enrolled, I will make sure that you have access.

Photo: General class work consists of two small weekly assignments, Thursday Pics due Thursday and the Critique for the class images due the following Tuesday and a major project that most often is due two weeks from the assignment date.  Ample time is given during class time to complete assignments. However, students must come prepared to class.  Thursday Pics are completed using any photographic device the student chooses (cell phone, DSLR, Point and shoot, film, etc) but must be uploaded onto the google slide by 4pm on Thursday.  Major assignments focus more on mastery of technique, contests, competitions, editing, and generally require the use and understanding of a Digital SLR camera (supplied in class).  There is a lab fee for this class, $60 for the year ($30/semester)

 

Fashion: General classwork consists of gaining an understanding of sewing, construction with fabrics, researching the fashion industry, collecting examples, drawing designs, and creating products of the students' choice.  The beginning class is intended to be more of a survey course; understanding of process and research.  Advanced fashion students will have more opportunities to create full-sized garments.

 

 

I am originally from Calgary, Alberta, Canada (Alberta is the Texas of Canada, but our rodeo is better).  I attended Brigham Young University (Hawaii and Utah) for my undergraduate degrees and received my Masters of Education from Lesley University (Cambridge, Mass.).

 

 I began my teaching career in Washington State, where I spent 14 years serving students teaching the visual arts.  I moved to Texas to work in museum education at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, where I served as the Academic Dean of the Glassell Jr. School of Art and the Manager of Studio and Gallery Programs.  Even though I enjoyed museum work very much, I longed for the classroom.  

 

I am honored to be part of the Shadow Creek Family.  I look forward to many years of service to the students in Alvin ISD, in particular the Shark Nation of Shadow Creek.
