I am originally from Woodford County, Kentucky. I’m proud to say that I have presented at the Ohio Catholic Educator Association Conference, three times at the Kentucky Art Educators Association State Conference, and thirteen times at the National Art Education Association Conference. I’ve served on the Visual Art Curriculum writing committee for the Archdiocese of Louisville three times. In my spare time I enjoy crocheting, quilting and spending time with my family. I have one cat named Bucky who loves taking naps while I am reading, crocheting or just watching TV.
