I was born and raised in Colorado Springs, lived in Boulder while studying photography at the University of Colorado, and discovered my passion for art education while volunteering at a children’s art studio there in 2007. I continued my work at the studio after graduating from CU, but we moved to Denver so that I could attend MSU Denver’s Art Education program. Since graduating again and completing my student teaching in 2011, I have taught art at all levels (ECE-12th, and beyond), in both public and private contexts.
I am so excited to have the opportunity to teach art at Columbine! Our children, Jonas (4th grade) and Lyle (1st grade) attend, we have loved being part of the community and the depth and breadth of information presented to students in Expeditionary Learning. I look forward to collaborating with teachers on module-related projects throughout the year that extend and enhance student knowledge while infusing the art room with choice and a focus on learning through experimenting and exploring different techniques and materials.
