Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.

Matthew 19:14  
But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”

I am so happy to be teaching at New Hope! I am currently the Elementary Music, and Middle-High School Drama teacher. I have been a Realtor with my husband in Southern Oregon for the last 9 years, during that time I have also done a lot of corporate training for realtors in many different facets.
 
Prior to that I spent 15 years as an early childhood educator, and director. I attended American River College in Sacramento and studied child psychology and early childhood education.  

I truly love sharing my days with children and watching the glow they get when they learn and experience new things. I am a mother of 5 amazing children, one of which currently attends New Hope, and have one beautiful granddaughter.
Ryan and I have been married for 14 years.  We love the Lord, and love spending time rafting, fishing and camping with our family and friends.
