Hello everyone - please call me Ms. Darby (she/her). I have been teaching art at LEAP since 2020. Before that, I was a business owner and media designer for over 20 years. 

St. Paul is my home. I was born in Florida and my family moved to New York, Indiana, and finally to Minnesota when I was a teenager. I speak Spanish and enjoy learning about new languages and cultures. My hobbies include vegetable gardening, cooking and woodworking. I am happiest creating art and enjoying nature. When I am not at work, I like to spend time with my husband, son and family. 

We are going to have a great year creating art at LEAP High School!
