I had the great privilege of being raised in a loving, Christian home, and came to a relationship with Christ as a pre-teen. Knowing Jesus has brought a peace that passes understanding!
I have a bachelor's degree in English Education from Oklahoma Baptist University and a master's degree in Library Media from the University of Central Oklahoma and spent eleven years in public education.

My husband, Rusty, and I met, bonded over spicy food and a love of travel, and after I agreed to learn the game of football, we married. We've been married fourteen years and have four children. Our life is never dull and our calendar is very full!  

I'm beyond thankful that the Lord led us to Grace Place. We've been members for eleven years, and I've been honored to be on staff for six year.  We've made lasting friendships, been able to do Jesus ministry with people who have true servants' hearts, and are thrilled to have our children be taught the Word here and us be equipped to teach it to them at home.
