Growing up, art was a major part of my life. I was constantly painting, building, drawing, and generally making a mess of my room and floor.

At some point, someone told me art was not important and would never be a good career option. So, I went to college and became a high school physics teacher.

After 10+ years of teaching physics, robotics, CAD, and various software programs, I finally realized that science, technology, engineering, ART, and math all go hand-in-hand. I’m passionate about using my illustrations to teach children skills and lessons they can use throughout their lives.

I rekindled my passion for art, just in time to share it with my daughter. The proudest moment in my life was when my daughter told her pre-school teacher, “My mom is an artist!”
