"My dad is a teacher. My sister is a teacher. My brother-in-law is a teacher. We come from a family of teachers, and I always knew that's what I wanted to be," she said.
Winters wanted to be a drill team dance instructor, but the jobs were scarce. She tried math, but it was too hard. She studied art in college as a "fallback," but it became her career.
For almost 13 years, Winters has been teaching calligraphy, drawing and painting to junior high students in Hurst.
