I love making and creating art and helping others to do the same.  I love to see students learn and rise above their own expectations to find success.  I taught art at a Jr. High in West Jordan, for several years, after graduating from BYU, with a degree in art education K-12. After having time to raise my family, I have returned to the classroom.  I have found joy in drawing and painting while on vacation, in “plein air”, or painting on the spot outside.   Being involved in art  is a source of happiness and creates time to focus on the beauty of this world.

Family time is so important and  includes gardening, bike riding, being outdoors, games and reading.  My art interests include: drawing, painting, ceramics, crafts, interior design, cooking, architecture design and photography.  I also have a love of music with singing, playing the piano, organ and the ukulele.
