Hello! I am Mrs. Petersen! I am so excited to teach art here in the Alta Aurelia School District. Here's a little bit about me:

Education

Education: I grew up in Alta and graduated in 2004 from Alta High School. I graduated from Northwestern College in 2009 with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts. I always knew I wanted to teach art and I thought my art teachers were my best counselors, so I decided to pursue a Master's Degree in Professional School Counseling from Buena Vista University. I earned that degree in 2014.

Family

I was married in 2007 to Kole Petersen, who is also from Alta. We live in Alta with our sons. Davin will turn 3 in November, and Kyron turned 1 in June. We are busy!

Hobbies

I love to run, ride my bike, and play disc golf. I love to hang out with my friends and family. I am passionate about community improvement and work as one of the City Cinderellas in Alta.

My Art

I enjoy painting and working with ceramics. However, I like to create my art work using whatever media I think will create the best final piece.
