MY JOY
My family brings me joy! I love my husband, Seth, and two kiddos, Tyler and Adelynn. Our family loves hockey, so watching them all play is just the best!
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT FRIENDS
Friends Christian School is such a special place. I love that I can speak freely about God, pray with my students, and be a part of their faith journey as they learn more about Christ. We also have the best staff around!
FAVORITE SPOT ON CAMPUS
Chapel Days are my favorite spot to be on campus. There is nothing better than worshipping with our Praise Band.
FAVORITE BIBLE VERSE (OR LIFE VERSE)
I love both Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future” and Deuteronomy 31:6 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
OTHER ROLES PREVIOUSLY AT FRIENDS
I began working at Friends in the extended care program. Then I taught a couple of years in Kindergarten, 18 years in Fourth Grade, and I am teaching my first year in 5th.
