She is also an international visual arts examiner for the IB. She loves working with textile, mixed media, photography, graphic design, any digital photo editing program and most recently she has discovered watercolour. While her first love will always be architecture she loves teaching art, particularly contemporary art because of the ability of artists to use art to make sense of our World.
