I attended Trinity International University in Bannockburn, Illinois, for my degree in music education, with an emphasis on piano performance.

I have enjoyed participating in a wide range of ensembles, bands, orchestras and choirs over the years.

I was born and raised in a Christian household. I gave my life to Christ when I was ten years old, and I was baptized at sixteen, as soon as my church would allow me!

I attend Crossway Church in Sussex, where my husband is a pastor.

At OCS, I can talk about my faith and integrate music with Christ in a way that is not possible in other environments. I am excited to build relationships with the students and watch them grow in their love of music.

When I am not making music, I enjoy board games, knitting, painting and
reading to my baby boy.
