Geri Bachman

Geri Bachman grew up on a farm northwest of Lindsborg, Kansas. That’s where her love for the great outdoors began. She spent countless hours pretending, being creative, and just enjoying playing in the dirt, grass, and trees.

A physical education teacher for over two decades, she also advocates for kids and disciples and mentors incarcerated teens. Giving kids hope through acceptance and empowerment is her motto. Geri embraces family and enjoys golfing with her husband Joel.

Isabel Dory, assisted Geri by illustrating Rosie the Bug Zapper.  Isabel grew up in Shawnee, Kansas and attended Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, majoring in biomedical illustration. She spends most of her free time creating art in one way or another, whether she’s creating charcoal drawings or crocheting bucket hats.  If she’s not working on an art project, you’ll find her curled up with her dog Luna watching Netflix and drinking tea.
