Courtney has been working in the public school systems for over 14 years. Originally from Saint Louis, Missouri, living in Budapest, Hungary, and now settled in Saint Paul, she's excited what SPPS has to offer and how she can give back. Courtney graduated with her bachelors in Art Education from Greenville College and earned her masters in 2-D Art from Lindenwood University. 

Courtney is passionate about Art and how it can connect to kids through their culture and life experiences. She is constantly doing projects that force students to reflect on who they are as people and how they fit into their worlds and the world as a whole.
