He has been volunteering in youth empowerment for 4 years now as a character building coach. he has had a lot of experience in giving different workshops and presentations to different ages and learned a lot about caregiving and how to befriend kids in order to raise them properly, focusing more on their character development. He uses that knowledge in his classes as an art instructor as it is important for him to make an impact in his students’ lives and not just be a normal teacher they will forget as soon as they stop taking classes. His motto is “People Not Programs” so he is a very people-oriented person. And that has grown in him a desire to study art therapy as he believes in the power of art as an expressive tool that can shape and change lives.
