Your creative educator, fellow explorer
Jo here, your guide through a land of learning and wonder. Drawing on years of experience bringing creativity to children, families, and learners of all kinds, I help plant seeds of curiosity, cultivate imagination, and light the way toward joyful discovery.
-
Innovative approach
I rethink how learning unfolds by inventing structures that support exploration, with immersive stories, motivational systems, competitions, and more. All of that with warmth, professionalism, and maybe a few dad jokes.
-
Original programs
Each initiative is carefully thought out and built from scratch based on creative needs, with bespoke workshops, playful games, and exercises designed to charm, challenge, and make hard work easy. Or at least more fun.
-
Years of expertise
Armed with a Master’s in Artistic Education, Qualified Teacher Status, and a looot of experience, I’ve founded projects that work, whether in grand institutions, busy classrooms, or those precious one-on-one learning moments.
WORDS FROM THE WORD so far
''something thoughtful, creative, and impactful for children or adults''
Testimonial from the children's hospital where workshops about memory rooted in the concept of neuroplasticity took place
I invited Jo to lead a creative workshop for children at our hospital after learning about her unique approach which combines artistic expression with an interest in neuroplasticity and the ways creativity can support emotional and cognitive well-being.
The workshop she led was a tailor-made creative experience, carefully designed to meet the needs of our hospital setting and the children we work with. Joanna brought a thoughtful, calm, and engaging energy that helped the kids feel comfortable and curious.
I would happily recommend her to any organization looking to offer something thoughtful, creative, and impactful for children or adults. Her work speaks for itself and so does the feeling she leaves behind.

Comprehensive learning
Inspiring workshops
Discover experiences that spark curiosity, imagination, and a love of exploration for learners of all sizes, from one-on-one sessions to larger groups. Drawing on years of experience founding Professor Cogwheel’s Academy in partnership with the University of Science and Technology in Kraków, running workshops in a children’s hospital, and leading a creative team for Cognizant at Google, I design sessions that combine hands-on discovery, mindfulness, creativity, and a touch of neuroscience to make learning playful, inspiring, and unforgettable.

With books on the way, printable resources, and engaging adventures across social media, this is a space where learning touches hearts and imaginations alike.
