About Chisato

Hi! My name is Chisato, and I am a recent MFA graduate working on a documentary project in the Bay Area. I am looking for a little work on the side to support my practice and would be thrilled to spend it with kids, mentoring/tutoring/one-on-one workshops, or help in the kitchen or around the house. I am very *much* a people-person and love connecting with babies, kids, teens- I've been a camp counselor for many years of my life (Oxbow Art Camp in Napa, Northstar Girls Quest Camp, Pal Camp), taught undergrad film and media classes, and have 10+ years of experience with childcare. I especially love doing creative projects with others (love a cooking class / film workshop / gardening day)! I make a point of forming real and meaningful connections with the kids I am working with- I want to be both a friend and caretaker.
