I am the Art teacher and Library facilitator at Christ the King. This is my first year teaching here, and I'm excited to get to know the students, staff, and the community. I grew up on a farm near Silverton, Oregon. During my college career, I took a break to pursue mission work with NET Ministries for two years. I had a wonderful experience traveling to help lead retreats for middle schoolers and high schoolers. I continued on to get a Bachelor's in Art and Design at Western Oregon University. From there I was an art teacher for two years at Chesterton Academy of Notre Dame in Spokane, Washington. In my free time, some things I enjoy are reading, painting, hiking, and running. I look forward to helping our students grow as artists and to discover ways that God speaks to us through beauty.
