Background

About Glen Kertes

As a freelance artist and a job coach, I combine my passion for art and education to create impactful and meaningful work. I have over 9 years of experience in producing realistic sports art of professional and youth athletes, using various mediums such as Copic markers and Prismacolor pencils. I have contributed to multiple card sets for Topps and Upperdeck, and have done projects for specific athletes' signing events. I also have over 5 years of experience in working with students in the SLE+12 program at Highland Park High School, where I assist them in their transition from school to career development. I use my skills in behavioral intervention, behavior management, and behavioral counseling to support their learning and growth. I work with them to identify their interests, strengths, and goals, and to provide them with opportunities and guidance to achieve them. I am motivated by seeing them succeed and thrive in their chosen fields.
