I am blessed to be teaching Art at HTCS, based at the Middle School location. I have been teaching art to children ages 4-16 for over 20 years, and I am in my 4^th year within the Parochial School System. I graduated from The Pennsylvania State University with a BFA in Printmaking and a BS in Speech-Language Pathology.

My non-traditional philosophy for the Art Programs at Holy Trinity Catholic School, is to act as a facilitator in a child’s journey and exploration into their personal artistic behavior. My role as facilitator is to broaden their appreciation of artists, artistic styles and teach techniques as they naturally arise in the classroom. This philosophy helps all of our children, from Pre-K through 8^th grade, to develop their creativity while removing their doubt and inhibition at their artistic skill level and letting them enjoy the true artistic process. The classroom is viewed as their studio space to create their personal response to a problem that they are presented.
