What attracted you to work at One River School?

The professionalism. From the look of the front desk to the studios, to the computer labs, to the leadership team.

How would you describe what it is like to teach here?

Students are always learning along with myself.

What makes attending classes at One River fun and compelling?

Being able to learn digital art in a really cool computer lab.

Is there a special One River moment that stands out for you?

Geez, there are so many. I’ve been at Millburn since the opening of the school. I still have some students that have been with me throughout the years. It’s nice to see them grow into young adults and see their art and skills grow with them.

What do you enjoy outside of One River?

I love sending time with my family. I also enjoy playing guitar, writing songs and buying vinyl records (too many lately). Oh and watching baseball… Let’s Go Mets!”
