Google Classes

The Arts at Google is one of Google’s employee wellness offerings. These arts classes help employees be more fulfilled personally as well as more skilled in creative arts, which yields outstanding benefits in terms of workplace productivity, self-efficacy, uncertainty tolerance, and presentation skills.

I empower Google employees to be more imaginative, competent, confident, and comfortable pursuing their creative endeavors. The creative arts subjects that I teach include stand-up comedy, narrative entertainment, presentation skills, overcoming stage fright, collaboration skills, and internet content virality.
