Biography

I love being creative. I’ve been teaching art for 20 years and creating art for as long as I can remember. My favorite mediums are watercolor, acrylic, pencil, pastels, and clay, but I also love repurposing vintage furniture and junk! I graduated from Appalachian State with a degree in Graphic Arts and Imaging Technology and then worked for a graphic design firm and printer after graduating, before finally returning to my home town to begin teaching art in 2005. I currently teach kindergarten through 8th grade at Oakboro Stem School. During the summer and on weekends, I teach several art camps and workshops in my home studio. I sell my pottery and art locally, through social media, and on Etsy all over the world. The only thing better than creating art is being able to teach it to others!
