Shanga Parker 

​

Shanga has been dedicated to teaching and learning for his entire life. After training as an actor, he began the next phase of learning - teaching what he studied. He has been a university professor for over 25 years - getting tenure at the University of Washington in Seattle and reaching the rank of Full Professor at NYU. He also holds Adjunct Professor/Visiting Professor positions at Columbia University and Iceland University of the Arts, respectively. 

 

To complete the head/heart/hands approach to education (learn it, try it, live it) he continues to work as an actor in theatre, television, and film. He has acted in numerous TV shows - ranging from 90’s sitcoms to procedural dramas. He also continues to work on stage in live theatre and directs theatre productions annually at all levels of production.

 

Shanga is a certified HeartMath Coach from HeartMath Institute.
