My teaching philosophy is rooted in constructivist and sociocultural learning theories, where knowledge is built collaboratively through shared experiences, dialogue, and creative practice. I view the classroom as a community of artists and thinkers who learn from one another.​ Justice-centered art education is at the heart of my work. Through projects that explore identity, culture, and social issues, I empower students to see art as a form of communication and transformation. The Wild Art Horse Project is a great example of my teaching philosophy at practice.
Red Bluff High School participates in the community wild art horse project. Through the collaboration of our art teachers Phillip Moller, Heather Vine, and Robin Manzo​. The art scene is being shaken up around town with their painting and installation of horses throughout our community.
