Meet the BOSS LADY
So let's be real... you've heard the rumors, and they are pretty much all true *wink*
This is my 10th year at Evans
I have 8 years of 100% pass rate on the AP Studio Art exam (...yeah... I am pretty good at my job) #hairlfip
9 of my students in 2023 passed the Adobe Professional exam to become Adobe Certified (Same test you take if your 3rd year in college.. so again... #hairflip) ....... did I mention that 8 of them scored above a 900/1000.
I am a professional photographer and graphic designer from industry. What in the world does this mean? I am an instructor, and all of my degrees have been content driven rather than getting a teaching degree. I completed teaching certifications (TAPP) outside of those programs to be able to teach you little darlings.
I ranked #8 in the US for Foodelia in 2021 : Food Photography, #12 in the US for Foodelia in 2023
I STILL work as an industry professional currently working for more awards & publications, so chances are, you get to watch me work on real-life industry work. Why is this good for you? I am not only current with trends and demands, but I also maintain connections to pass on to you if you are interested in pursuing this as a career.
I graduated in 2020 with my M.F.A. in Photography from SCAD #hairflip

Ok... because if you're still reading this, you obviously want to know more about me on a personal note (#creeper.... *just kidding*) ... (kind of kidding... but not really)
I am the Queen of the Realm of Harris. #lafamilia #bossfamily #allhailthequeen
My nickname in the school and for my students is Boss Lady
I have sleeves (tattoos)... yes they hurt.. yes you should wait until you're older (with $$$ and a career that allows them) to get one... no I will not draw yours until you are rich and famous.
I smile when I am angry....... but you're perfect, right? So... you shouldn't see that. But then sometimes, I smile when I am happy, too.
I lose my mind over poor work ethic... like straight psycho.
I completely (and utterly) don't function without caffeine and goldfish... and I don't answer questions before 8am. **for the safety of all mankind, please read that again**
My advanced students turn into the family I never wanted (HAHAHA), but I completely adore them. If you stick around with me, you will see. #lafamilia
I have been voted, "Scariest Death Glare," "Most Likely to Bring a Pet to School," "Most Likely to Become a Serial Killer," and "Most Likely to arrive AFTER Her Students," by previous senior classes.
I am a proud fur-mama to my four-legged canine (bloodhound) child, Bo Duke.
If they had eye-rolling as an Olympic sport, I would be the team captain.
I am obsessed with the Big Bang Theory. O B S E S S E D. I am basically a mix of Sheldon and Bernadette.
I am obsessed with shopping.
And lastly, (and honestly because I need to end on a professional note and stuff....) I love to travel
.........
Ok... because you probably don't believe anything I have said above... please see the memes from our famous Meme Wall (created by my advanced students) to "learn" more about me... Shoutouts to NySiere, Jenil & Matthew for some of my favorite memes!
