She is a graduate of the College of Design at NC State University with a Bachelor of Art and Design and a minor in Film Studies. She has dabbled in many areas of artistry – illustration, painting, film, music, etc. - and strives to create strong work in every form of media she pursues. She has been illustrating and painting all her life and her ability to visualize space, use color, and conceptualize has served her well in the creative industry. She is excited to pass along knowledge and techniques that she has developed over the years to her students, while creating a fun and inspiring atmosphere that will propel their motivation and innovation.


Calvin U.

Calvin Ulrich attended UNC-Chapel Hill and received a bachelor of arts in Studio Art, with an emphasis in painting and drawing.
He typically try to educated students with at least two different methods of instruction: explaining concepts verbally and showing them what he was talking about visually, but sometimes he tries to switch things up. He believed that It is very important that his students understand the underlying principles behind what they are doing, because that helps them much more long term. 

His expectation is that students slowly build a base of knowledge and technique from which to create art and problem solve in his fun and friendly art class. He hopes to see students progress throughout the year and gain the confidence to solve problems and create more independently than when they began.

For Calvin's personal art, he seeks to illustrate the connection between symbolism and the natural world. Much of his artwork uses animals as representations of current political events, ideologies, and issues. His goal is to show the ways in which nature and animals are used as tools for political gain and often separated from any ties to the real natural world.

Jana T.

I was told if you want to make something good you must make it personal and something you would enjoy. This is what inspires my artwork. I enjoy watercolor painting as my main medium. I like the flexibility it brings and the many different techniques you can do with it. From time to time, I will branch out and try another medium. I have worked well with oil paints, oil pastels, acrylics, as well as simple pencil drawings. However, I enjoy
watercolor the most, working in a representational impressionistic, and still-life style. I love to push and
pull color, design, and texture that watercolor has given me the freedom to explore medium to its fullest. I explore surfaces, textures, and tools on small studies to that I am always pushing my boundaries.

When I was little my family moved around a lot. Drawing was one thing I was able to take with me, no matter where I was. As time progressed so did my art abilities. Arkansas Tech where I received my Bachelor of Art Degree. I had taught to different populations for years right after I graduated.

James (Jimmie) B.

When you are given the opportunity to wonder, question, and investigate, real learning can now happen. My wide range experience of teaching/tutoring all levels of K-12 mathematics for thirteen years has given me a clear view of the connections and continuity of math through the grade school years. My students enjoy the enthusiasm I have for math, so in turn, learning becomes a joyful and anticipated event. We celebrate the small accomplishments because when the smallest learning gaps are filled, the foundational building blocks of higher-level mathematics are broadened, deepened, and ultimately strengthened. I pose higher-level questions that challenge my students to really think about mathematical concepts in a new and exciting way. This leads to a new-found curiosity of mathematics that can be explored with confidence. I look forward to working with you to help you maximize your potential. When I am not working with my students, I am enjoying family time with my wife and four-year-old, usually riding our bicycles or swimming.

I've worked in Brunswick and Johnston Counties, but most of my career has been in Wake County teaching 5th and 2nd grades. The last 4 years I have worked as a math instructional coach and have enjoyed increasing my understanding of how children learn math. I want all children to believe that they are good at math and to enjoy solving problems! I try to make math lessons engaging and at each student's developmental level. It is my hope that students not only increase their knowledge and understanding of grade level skills, but increase their confidence and critical thinking as well. During our online math camp, we will use a variety of virtual tools like math manipulatives and videos to make the lessons interactive and engaging.
