About Me:   I believe that creative students brim with self confidence and are free to invent new ways of thinking.  Both of which are extremely important in our world right now.  

     I attended both Adrian College and Siena Heights University and continue  to grow professionally every day.  I am blessed to have art teachers, artists, and creative thinkers in my own personal life, who reinforce the importance of the visual arts on a daily basis.

     My favorite art medium is color pencil.  I like that it is portable and can go anywhere.   I love teaching. and enjoy the connections and “Ah Ha” moments from students.  I like the outdoors and all things connected; hiking, camping, fishing, gardening and hunting.  

     I am  excited to begin the best year ever!
