I grew up in York, Pennsylvania with my parents and two sisters. As a young girl I found a love for art thanks to her teachers throughout school. Towards the end of high school I decided that going to school for art was what I wanted, and decided on the Tyler School of Art at Temple University.
I always knew I wanted to be an artist and educator. In 2015 I graduated with a Bachelors of Fine Arts and my teaching certification and began my career as a public school art teacher. Almost a decade later I still love what I do! Throughout my teaching career I have worked in both elementary and high schools helping to spread the joy of creativity to my students.
Over the course of my education career I found time to get my Masters in Arts Administration and begin designing art pieces for friends and family. These pieces were the beginnings and inspiration to start Freckled Press. I love to see the joy that art can bring to others, and wants to make that joy a regular part of my life. My core values as an artist are joy, creativity, and connection and I strive to share that through my work.
