I began my career teaching in the Minneapolis Public School System. I moved to the Milwaukee area in 1990 and taught art at the Milwaukee Montessori School, Hillel Academy and Lake Bluff School in Shorewood. My education includes a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Minnesota and a Masters’s degree from Concordia University in Mequon. I live in the Town of Norway with my husband Greg. My son Max attends UW-Whitewater and my daughter Maya is attended UW-Platteville. Greg works at the V.A. Hospital. We have two pets, Jessie (our black lab) and Lola our cat. As a family we enjoy traveling and many types of snow and water sports.
I believe art is an essential part of a child’s education. We are inundated and influenced by visual images on a daily basis. Our art curriculum follows an integrated approach to learning. Lessons include curriculum connections with Math, English, Social Studies and Science.
From cave paintings to the technological age we now live in art continues to be a basic part of the human experience. Imagine how boring our world would be with no art!
