I’m a fun loving educator who loves bringing my creativity and knowledge into what I do! Aside from pursuing my art head on, I love working with kids. I love creating experiences with them and helping them learn and interact. Whether we’re on a nature walk or making messy finger paintings. I like being apart of raising the future! The same care I put into my work, I also put into my art and adventures— often accompanied with my dog of three years that I trained solo. I’m full of spunk, compassion, energy, and fun so I can’t wait to bring that into our time together!
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Decatur for work.
