I have been an art teacher in New Albany Plain Local Schools since 2007. I grew up in Westerville and attended Bowling Green State University for a few years before finishing my undergraduate and graduate work at The Ohio State University, where I received a Bachelor and Master in Art Education. At this time, I am in the process of completing an additional licensure program in early childhood education at Ashland University. I currently teach kindergarten and fourth grade visual art and I have also taught first grade, second grade, sixth grade and seventh grade visual art in New Albany.
