Education work
Darrow School
Role: Film, Animation, Photography, & Improv Teacher
3.5 years
In my time at Darrow I focused on building its existing Film program into a more robust Narrative Film experience for high-schoolers. Students learn writing and analytical skills in film to prepare them for directing and editing their own sync-sound narrative movies, as well as working as a team under me to create more ambitious long-form movie projects. I also created several other programs at Darrow including an Animation class, an after school Improv club, and a weekly news show by the Darrow Media Team.
