Bong is a dynamic musical and visual artist whose presence is like medicine to all who witness them. After serving Bay Area youth and schools as an art teacher for 8 years, Bong now works with The Teaching Well by helping adults deeply and bravely explore personal wellness and healing techniques. Bong invites others to approach sustainability in ways that are attuned with, and sensitive to, the specific needs of the individuals and communities being served. Bong is a gifted space holder who seamlessly infuses their musical, artistic, and somatic gifts in their educator coaching and facilitation practices. Bong’s brilliant mind and soulful artistry helps ensure the Teaching Well’s content aesthetic synergistically melds form, function, and human-centeredness. Although Bong’s genuine humility would never let them admit it, at the Teaching Well we lovingly refer to them as Royalty because their encapsulating presence and gifts invites reverence.
