About Me:
This year marks the start of my 16th year of teaching, this is my 9th year teaching 4-8 Art for Carroll CSD. I also taught K-8 Art for 4 years for Hubbard-Radcliffe Elementary / South Hardin Middle School, and K-4 Art for 3 years at Fort Dodge CSD.
In my free time I enjoy Reading, Watching TV/Movies, Drawing, Going to the gym, hanging out with friends, and shopping.
Education:
I received my BA in K-12 Art Education, and Studio Art from Iowa Wesleyan College in 2006.
I received my MA in Art Education with an emphasis on Leadership through Boston University in 2016.
My Philosophy:
I believe that every student can create with a little motivation. One of the great things about art is there are not wrong answers if you follow the directions, and everyones projects can look different.
My Classes:
I teach 4 Grade Art at Adams Elementary, and 5-8 Grade Art at Carroll Middle School. 4th and 5th grade are on a 6 day rotation all year long, and I see the students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade 30 to 35 days in a row each year.
How to reach me:
If you are looking to contact me by phone I am at Adams Elementary in the morning and I am at Carroll Middle School from lunch till the end of the day.
