I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not teaching fine arts to my favorite upper school students at our incredible classical Christian school, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading. My favorite things to do are cultivate my ever-expanding gardens, wrangle chickens, ferment all the things, sourdough bake with einkorn flour, and figure out new ways to use essential oils. I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.
I am a board member of The Sparrow Fund and an Empowered to Connect Facilitator. I love to dig in the dirt, cook nourishing food, capture beauty through my camera lens, watch the sunrise on the beach, and spend time with good literature on my porch while sipping on a hot cup of coffee.

I knew it had many potential health benefits, including bio-available vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, and probiotics, but I...
I didn’t even know Kombucha was a thing until December when I was looking into starting sourdough baking again. When I saw it on the Cultures for Health site, I made a mental note to go back later to see what it was all about. Then a few weeks later, a friend was trying to...
