Hello! I was born and raised in Nevada and moved to San Diego, CA to attend college at Point Loma Nazarene University. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Art Education and began teaching high school Art in San Diego. I moved to Indiana in 2010 and joined West Middle School in 2012. I love teaching middle school art! In my free time I run long distance and compete in triathlons. I am also a K9 Handler and have certified Search and Rescue dogs. My favorite artists are Dale Chihuly, Bisa Butler, and Kelsey Montague. You can find me at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway every weekend in May and kayaking and fishing in the summers.
