I have been teaching art for 11 years, most of that in my hometown of Mishawaka Indiana. I attended Indiana University Bloomington and fell in love with watercolors while taking an outdoor water color painting class. I have recently been selling my work at art fairs in the summers and taking commissions. But now all that is on hold! I am attending The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the Low Residency Master of Fine Arts program and will be done in the summer of 2023
