Default Overcomitting with AA?

I think that I am over-committing with my big pairs. I am currently reading PNL1 and am wondering if I could play this hand better.

Villain is 27/16/2.0/66. Given her raise-call action pre-flop; then flop call, I put her on AK.

On the turn, all I have is an over-pair but the board is getting drawy. My stack is roughly the same size as the pot so I pushed to protect the pot.

Thinking about my opponents range:

I am ahead of
- AK
- KQ
- QJ
- JT

I am behind
- KK
- JJ
- 66
- KJ

Am I guilty of building a big pot with only a semi-strong hand?
