Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Indiana University of Pennsylvania
Hello there! I am an art educator with a Bachelor of Science in K-12 Art Education.  I am also a wife, mom and artist!  I have taught since 2009 in public schools, a charter school and even in private art centers. 

I have a new passion for teaching online.  I truly enjoy bringing my enthusiasm for art into the homes of students.  I aim to boost artistic confidence by providing simple, yet engaging, step-by-step lessons.

I have experience teaching a variety of other subjects and strive to incorporate those core subjects into my art lessons.  I aim to encourage confidence, creativity, empathy and cultural awareness each day!
