My name is Brianna Simpson. I grew up in North Carolina and graduated from Appalachian State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Art Education. This will be my 18th year of teaching, and my 13th year at Gateway. I absolutely love teaching art! When I am not at school, I enjoy creating art, camping, gardening, doing yoga, and working on home improvement projects. My husband and I have three dogs: Otie, Rusty, and Gus.
