Dusty Francis (ASL 2021-present)

What’s your connection to ASL?

I am excited to be starting my first year at ASL as a MS/HS choir teacher.

How do you reconnect with long-distance friends or family?

My friends, family and I have prolific WhatsApp threads and regular phone and video calls. I also love sharing articles, videos and memes with my loved ones.

How do you stay connected to your...

Community? I've joined a local football club and am looking forward to joining a local choir and running club very soon.

Colleagues? I think the performing arts are particularly lucky that our subjects are also one of our favorite hobbies, so I love swapping concert, theatre and arts recommendations with my colleagues.

Joy? I love exploring all of London's art museums and restaurants (preferably with a friend or two at my side).

Well-being? A home-cooked meal and a good book to read on the terrace.
