"Can I just say how impressed I am with how much they learn? When they come home they are always repeating everything they learned that day! There's no way I could have taught them any of this! This is a wonderful asset to our family to have the ability to learn these things that I am not gifted in."
-Jessica Marsh, Homeschool Parent

In addition to teaching, Brittany is the Community Relations Director, responsible for the outreach and communication with all agencies, clients, and parents of Awakening Minds’ programming. She also manages social media marketing and assists with bookkeeping and payroll. "During my time in college my art professors would say, 'I loved teaching art and some days it didn’t even feel like a job.' That was my goal out of college and exactly what I got when I started working at Awakening Minds Art. I am surrounded by passionate people that continuously challenge me to learn new things each and every day. I have grown as an educator, administrator, director, and so much more because of the opportunities Awakening Minds Art has provided me. " |

She earned her degrees in the Fine Arts, specifically for painting. After graduating and moving back from the St. Louis area, she began teaching art and art history classes at Terra State and Owens Community Colleges. When Emily found Awakening Minds Art in 2017, the change in careers made sense. “I began teaching at AMA to continue my passion for art and to spread an appreciation for the arts to as many people as possible. Art is an important part of everyday life, not just as an outlet for emotions or as a way of expressing ideas, but as a way to improve your mind and body. I am so happy to work in a place that celebrates that!” In addition to teaching, Emily is the in-house grant writer and directs the operations and development of the Findlay Headquarters Studio. |
