Welcome to the ART ROOM! 

This is my first year teaching at Saint Ann School and I'm so very excited to be sharing this experience with everyone! I graduated from The College of New Jersey with my B.A. in Art Education. I am also an exhibiting artist and have multiple exhibitions a year in the tri-state area. I have a background of teaching art to children and adults in a museum setting and I am looking forward to translating that knowledge into my classroom.

I have a wide range of knowledge in art materials such as: drawing, painting, ceramics, book arts, sculpture, photography, digital art, and even installations. I'm looking forward to sharing my skills and knowledge of these materials with your child. I also have a passion for art history and all of the amazing things that are happening in the art world today! I will be sharing inspiration from the classic art masters and well as up and coming artists that are making their mark on today's contemporary art world. 

When I'm not in the art room you can find me exploring local musuems, creating my own artwork, spending time with friends and family, trying out a new recipe, or learning a new dance move in Salsa class.
