Anything else you'd like us to know: My students all know I am obsessed with my 16-year-old Tuxedo Cat named Cooper. He's a fixture of my classroom. My family and I live in the St. Johns neighborhood and LOVE any art or iconography with the St. Johns Bridge on it! I own a puppet theatre company called KCPuppetree! Also, I will be teaching Theatre and Puppets at Grace Art Camp this summer.
