About Me

I teach Art Art 1, 2, 3H, 4H, Ap 2D Art & Design & Ceramics and I sponsor the National Art Honor Society and Art Club at Berea High School. I have been teaching since 2007 and I have spent all of those years at Berea High School.

I love working with students in and out of the art room. I love to see their individual voice come through as they create their works of art. I enjoy watching students grow and mature as they progress through the art program at Berea High School. I really hope to instill an appreciation for the arts in my students and hope they find joy in creating.

I was born and raised in Rochester, NY, and attended Buffalo State College in Buffalo, NY where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Art Education. After starting my teaching career I attended Southern Wesleyan College and earned my Master's of Education.

I am married to my wonderful husband we have two amazing boys ages 5 and 6.

I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, tending to my numerous house plants, creating (baking, cooking, drawing, painting) reading & watching tv (I enjoy make-over shows and comedies.) Art materials I typically work with are graphite pencil and colored pencil, painted paper collage, and acrylic paint.
