About Colleen, by Jeff

Colleen is a wonderful theatre teacher and she inspires me every day. With her joyful attitude, caring spirit, and witty sense of humor, she spreads joy wherever she goes. She is like the Energizer bunny, accomplishing so much in one day! Colleen’s students look up to her. She is magically able to get 50 awkward teenagers to create amazing pieces of art.

Last year, Colleen directed seven plays and wrote two scripts. A life-long learner and bookworm, she read 18 new books, took up jewelry making, learned ukulele (well… a bit…), took a dance class, and learned to knit. 

As a mother, I know she will inspire this child to pursue their passions and develop their individuality. When Colleen visits her nieces or works with her students, it is obvious how much they adore spending time with her. Her supportive nature and kindness immediately shine through. 

Top things I adore about Colleen:

1) I look forward to our future.

I want to achieve so much more with Colleen by my side. She is very supportive of everything I do. I’ve never met a more caring person (aside from my mother).

2) Colleen is extremely passionate.

Colleen is excited about the world and all of the opportunities she can create. Her optimism and passion are contagious.

3) We constantly make each other laugh.

She has an amazing sense of humor and a very quick wit. I often catch myself laughing at a joke she told hours later.
