Hello! Welcome to my teacher page. I am a new teacher at NEHS, but am starting my seventh year at CMCSS. I grew up a military brat and lived all around the country, including overseas in Germany and Japan. I received a BFA in Graphic Design from UTM in 2008 and later went back to receive a BFA in Art Education in 2012. I have a nine-year-old daughter named Zelda, and a dog named Maggie.

I believe every child is an artist. My role as an art educator is to help each student develop an interest in and the ability for creative expression in visual terms, using skills and techniques of artistic expression consistent with the TN Visual Art State Standards.
