I was blessed to spend 12 years teaching kindergarten in Alaska. During that time, God gave me a passion for serving other teachers. I felt called to serve in the education department at Taylor, and I look forward to what He has in store.

In addition to my professional endeavors, I enjoy learning, being outdoors, and spending time with family.
