I am a superhero who rarely discloses my powers. :) This is what has been said about me:

Monica is a working artist residing in North Hollywood. She teaches drawing, multi-media, and aboriginal collage art to students ages 4- 13. Her line of greeting cards EmpowerME is sold in Cherish Consignment in San Francisco, and she stays busy with her love of reading, cooking, and being the host of a radio station called GYSTRadio. Monica believes in each student's authenticity and interests, and she feels that art is a collaboration, where both student and teacher can share in the learning process. Her students learn to trust themselves and believe in the growth and process of their abilities through visual art.

Monica holds a BA in Studio Art from U.C. Irvine and a MFA in Fine Art from California Institute of the Arts. She has taught visual arts for the Community Arts Partnership, animation at Watts Towers Cultural Center, and Special Focus art classes at Oakwood School in North Hollywood. She has been a McGroarty Instructor for almost 2 years. Monica has experience in marketing, graphic design, non-profit administration, and development.
