About Us:
Crafting Connections, One Workshop at a Time
At Connect & Create: We believe in the power of creativity to bring people together and strengthen teams. Our journey began with two passionate educators who saw a need for engaging, fun-filled team-building experiences in professional settings.
Our Founders
​
Nancy: The Artistic Mathematician
Nancy's unique blend of analytical thinking and artistic flair forms the cornerstone of our approach. A math teacher by profession, Nancy has been immersed in the arts since she was 10 years old. Her lifelong dream of sharing the joy of creativity with others led her to recognize the transformative power of art in team dynamics. Through her work with educators across the city, Nancy identified a crucial need for team-building activities that could breathe new life into professional development.

Jogene brings a free spirit and a love for continuous learning to our workshops. A former ELA teacher, Jogene's passion for exploration extends beyond the classroom. Her love for plants and socializing reflects in the organic, nurturing environment she creates in our workshops. Like Nancy, Jogene's experience in education revealed the importance of enjoyable, engaging professional development activities. Her talent for helping individuals find joy in collective experiences is at the heart of our workshop design.
