She has this knack for turning any materials that happen to be within arm’s reach into a work of art.

Diane blended strengths-based creative engagement with advocacy. For young ones, opportunities to use color, mixed media, forms to engage a sense of delight, and music to develop fine-motor skills, gross-motor skills, and social competencies. The expressive arts experiences for teens and adults also enhanced social competencies, sense of belonging, and self- confidence.
