Emily Hayden-Granger

Emily grew up playing in the woods outside of Annapolis, Maryland and crabbing on the shores

of the Chesapeake Bay. As a young adult she ventured west and lived in San Diego where she

and her husband raised their two daughters, Ella and Addie.

She taught Art in many different elementary age settings, from teaching art on a cart to working

with a non-profit dedicated to bringing the arts and community together through education and

creative exploration.

Emily is grateful to call the Blue Ridge Mountains home now, where she loves swimming and

paddle boarding on the lakes, hiking, creating art and spending time with family and friends.
