Meet the team.
Hi! My name is Amber Browning (a.k.a. "Ms. Amber").
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Family and Consumer Sciences along with multiple years of homeschool teaching and substitute teaching experience under my belt. I am a mom of four boys and a passionate pursuer of all things creative. I fell in love with photography in my teen years and eventually grew that hobby into a successful business in my 30s. You can find my photography over at amberbrowningphotography.com.
​
As a homeschool mom I saw a need in our area for engaging electives for students of all ages. I didn't see any local photography courses offered in our community which got my wheels turning. After much thought, prayer and research Creative Classroom PICKS was born!
​
I am excited to work with my students as we explore a variety of interests through a hands on learning approach.



Hi! I'm Erin Cruz (a.k.a. "Ms. Erin").
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication and am a self-taught acrylic painter. I love to bring joy and fondness to others through colors. I’ve had a passion for art since I was little, which has led me toward igniting that passion in other young minds. I’ve worked with kids of every age in different settings and always enjoy their creativity and unapologetically wild ideas.
