A native Southern Oregonian, I graduated from Grants Pass High School and then from Southern Oregon University with a Bachelor of Science. I have previously worked in the local recreation and tourism industries as part of BLM’s Rogue River Program, and as the Program Coordinator for Travel Southern Oregon. I absolutely love living in Grants Pass and think New Hope is an amazing and essential part of our community.

Since 2018, when my oldest daughter began attending the school, we have felt full heartedly welcomed and have experienced a sense of community and family here. God opened the doors to use my heart for youth and experience with computers for His good at the school, and in the fall of 2019, I began my role as the computer teacher at both the elementary and secondary levels. I love that the Lord pulled and rooted us here and I am thrilled to continue to serve Him and our students!
