About
My name is Kaitlin Leadbitter. I am a creative professional from southwestern Pennsylvania, and I recently graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art, with a minor in Digital Design.
​
For the past 3 years, I have been using my knowledge in several different art media to help teach youth art camps. I believe it is incredibly important to give children the tools and freedom to experiment within art studios so they may find the joy in creating.
​
Below, you can find my resume, which gives an overview of my experience throughout the years in different artistic spaces such as galleries, art camps, design work, and more.
