My name is Vincent T Joachim and I mentor the youth through the arts. The power of the arts is amazing. It is an excellent outlet for youths to put their positive energy in to. They learn new skills while building self-esteem and confidence.
I am available on contract to come to your school or community group to teach photography, graphic design or video. I can teach from 1 day to three months. I have recently taught video at St. Augustine junior high in Calgary and also taught photography in the country of Trinidad.
