Education: K-12 art education degree from Ball State University.

Profession: I taught elementary art for seven years in the Indianapolis area. Currently, I stay home to care for my three daughters.

Art has always been a huge part of my life. I am so thankful that my mom, who taught elementary art for 25 years in Anderson, shared with me her love of creating. She was a huge influence on me and I am thrilled to be able to pass this on to more young children. I look forward to helping them become more confident in their art abilities or just showing them how much fun creating art can be.
