I am currently a substitute teacher in Poudre School District in Fort Collins, CO. I graduated from Colorado State University and completed the Art Education program. I am enjoying the opportunity to become engrossed in the classroom setting while developing my teaching education and philosophy. My inspiration to become a teacher originated from the encouraging classes attended with many masterful teachers throughout my education.
Our ability, as human beings, to create is one of the most astonishing and definitive aspects of our culture. We are each inborn with an individual uniqueness, and it amazes me how we are able to both express and explore those unique characteristics through creativity. I am fascinated with the capabilities through art to transform thought, emotion, and our personalities into a universal visual communication.
As an artist, I am inspired by color, form, and the diverse personalities of various mediums. I enjoy discovering art in all its forms, learning as much about myself as I do about art in the process. I hope to share my passion in art with my students, and present them not only with a new way to view the world, but also themselves. Through process, experimentation, and encouraged creativity, I aspire to illustrate to my students the many benefits that the arts offers.
