I grew up at New Hope, attending from kindergarten through 12th grade. I went to Grand Rapids, Michigan, for college and graduated with a Bachelors in Secondary Education (English major, math minor) from Cornerstone University and a Bachelors in Religious Education from Grace Christian University. After graduating from college, my husband and I moved back to Grants Pass. I started work at New Hope in February of 2010 and have been here ever since. My husband and I have three boys. I love teaching at the same school my kids attend and love being a part of this school family.

 Currently, I teach high school English and upper level Math and am the College Counselor and ASPIRE site coordinator.
