I consider myself blessed to have been raised here in Grants Pass.  I graduated from Grants Pass High School in 1999, and in 2004 I earned a Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology from Southern Oregon University.

My husband, Eric and I have two boys, Daniel and Nathan who both attend New Hope.  As a family we enjoy hiking, spending time at the lake, and snow skiing.  Our boys are involved in sports (soccer and basketball), church and 4h club. We attend River Valley Community Church.

I began my time at New Hope as a volunteer in the Learning Center, which opened the door for me to accept a part time position in the LC the following year.  What a blessing that has been! This year, in addition to my time in the Learning Center, I am excited to be teaching 9th and 12th grade Health classes.

Each new school year is an opportunity to see God work in the hearts of our students, I am so blessed to be a part of the New Hope family.
