Hi everyone! I am so excited to be your teacher and for you all to learn a little bit about me! I was born and raised in Rogers Arkansas. It is the only place I have ever known. Fun Fact: I lived in the same house my whole life until I was 20, when I moved out for collage!

From a young age I always loved to draw, color, and create. While most kids were playing with Barbies or Trucks, I would be hunched over a table doing an art project. Art has always been a big interest in my life.

When I was 3 years old my parents signed me up for dance, I LOVED it, and stuck through it until I was 18! In the 4th grade I joined the competition team with my studio until I graduated from high school. I was on the pom team for my middle school in the 8th grade, and from 9th through 12th I was on the competition pom team.

I attended Westside Elementary School, in Rogers Arkansas from kindergarten to 5th grade. From there I went to Elmwood Middle School from 6th grade till 8th. For high school I went to Rogers High, and graduated from there in 2018! After high school I went on to Northwest Arkansas Community Collage or NWACC, and received my Associate of Science degree. I then transferred to the University of Arkansas where I got my Masters in Elementary Education.

I am the youngest out of the two siblings. I have an older sister that is 12 years older than I am! She works in the Wal-Mart home office. My mother used to work at a small company that manufactures robots, but she quit to take care of my Meme in 2020. My dad works at Sam's Furniture as the leading salesman! I have one cat named Jessie, and two dogs; Hampton and Annie. Hampton is the small one with the strawberry blond hair. The big dog smiling is Annie.

I want to teach because I love being around and working with children. I used to babysit with my sister when I was younger, and I also helped demonstrate at my studio. I had experience working with children at a young age and knew that teaching was something I wanted to do forever! With my love of art and working with kids it only made sense to become an art teacher!
