Sonya Korder

Sonya has been a member of the Usdan community since 2004, spending three summers as a camper before returning as an assistant teacher in 2010. In 2014, she founded the Sewing & Fashion Design program at Usdan. After working as a footwear designer for several years, she is excited to return to teach Painting & Drawing this summer - the very class at Usdan that helped her to build a foundation for a career in the arts!
