I am a puppet builder and a teacher with a variety of puppetry classes & workshops for students of all ages. Although primarily self taught in the art of puppetry I have been in education and building puppets for 15 years. I worked for a fantastic outdoor and experiential education program called Nature's Classroom as a teacher and later as a Program Coordinator. I have also been commissioned to make several puppets for shows, plays, and as a classroom teaching aide. Currently I am an active member of the Puppeteers of America and the Connecticut Guild of Puppetry. I also was awarded first place in the BJ Guyer Puppet building contest through the Stan Winston School of Character Arts with a Minion puppet.
