Clinton first began developing what has become a career’s work in understanding and disrupting the harmful and far-reaching consequences that some artistic education spaces can have on young artists. Clinton’s graduate thesis, “The Ego and The Educator”, was the catalyst that has led to Clinton’s ongoing research and practice in anti-oppressive facilitation.Currently, Clinton teaches private voice to BFA musical theatre students at Pace University.
