WORK/ RELATED EXPERIENCE

Volunteer | Saint Matthew Catholic School, Phoenix, AZ

Every Friday I volunteer to give ‘mini’ art lessons to students at a local private elementary school.
Students at this school have no access to art instruction but show great enthusiasm to learn.
Therefore, I decided to share my knowledge with them.

As a recipient of the REDES EnFamilia Scholarship I was responsible for donating my time and talent

art exhibitions, and worked on community projects at the EnFamilia facilities.
