Since Spring 2025, I’ve taught portfolio development and art direction courses at VCU, working with cohorts of up to 16 students at a time.
I guide students through building integrated campaigns with a clear creative framework, strengths-based and actionable feedback, and regular one-on-ones to support their progress.
Students leave with fully developed portfolio websites and portfolio-ready work. Several have gone on to win awards, secure internships, and earn acceptance into programs like VCU Brandcenter.
Expected to teach at Creative Circus beginning Fall 2026.
Below are selected samples of my students’ work.
