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 homeschooling my favorite students, 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 herbs and 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’ve been recently chatting with several people who have shared about health concerns they’re struggling with. Some of the people have newly diagnosed conditions, while others have been fighting through chronic issues for quite awhile. Regardless, they all have one thing in common: they have a genuine desire to help themselves heal, but simply aren’t...
I’m still “re-entering” after our most recent Together Called weekend with The Sparrow Fund. It’s the seventh year we’ve had the privilege of serving adoptive and foster couples at this spectacular marriage retreat event. Each year always carries special memories, but I think 2019 has been my favorite to date. We experienced such deep conversation...
