Whoa! I started at PBLHS in 2013. This is a special place with many talented staff members and students; I am thankful to be here! As well as teaching Art II, Art III, 2D/3D, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator, I also sponsor Art League, am a class sponsor, the prom sponsor, and a Navigator Program Designer. (our mentoring and induction program) I am energized when I have opportunities to partner and support new staff!
I have a passionate about fostering problem solving skills in my students while also creating a welcoming environment for all.
I currently reside in Urbana with my husband, Trevor, and our adorable dog, Blue. Trevor is a full time freelance motion designer. Check his work out HERE. Blue is at the top of her field, car counting.
I was born and raised in a rural community, Lewistown, IL with one older brother, Jay, a Principal in Canton, IL , and my twin brother, Adam, his wife Brittany, and my adorable nephews reside in Utah. My parents are both retired; my mom after teaching at the elementary level for over 25 years.
After graduation I attended Spoon River College where I graduated with an Associates in Arts Degree and Certificates in Web Design and Electronic Design. While attending SRC I was involved with the student government and served as the student trustee.
I then transferred to Western Illinois University in Macomb. I graduated in December 2012 with my Bachelors in Art Education. While attending WIU I served as the Vice-President of the National Art Education Association Student Chapter, and the President of FUEL, an on-campus ministry. Currently, I attend art education conferences at the Krannert Art Museum to continue to bring new things into the classroom, and recently earned a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Integration Technology in Education from WIU.
My first love in the art world was for photography and graphic design. I later found my niche in the fine art side and focused heavily in both areas throughout my college career. I have a wonderfully supportive family and group of friends. I am blessed by them daily.
I have a love for people, service, community, music, all things art, and learning new things!
Some of my favorite things are:
people, sunshine, tea, coffee, coffee mugs.
Fall, Christmas, pinterest.com,
esty.com, family, friends, music,
acoustic guitar, yellow, dogs, daises,
Jack Johnson, naps, my Mac, TOMS,
thrift stores, the outdoors, books...
People who inspire me:
Mom, my brothers, my close friends, Dad
Annie Lebovitz, Blake Mycoskie,
Jesus, Vik Muniz, Grandpa W.
The Snowmans, Shelby Adams, Spencer Tunik...
