My Profile
GROWING UP 
Born and raised in Kentucky, I experienced a very happy and fulfilled childhood in my Christian home with my dad, mom, and younger brother. It was made ever sweeter when I accepted Jesus Christ into my heart at the age of six, and He has been there ever since. I thank God that I came to know Him at such an early age and that I had a family faithful to Christ and devoted to bringing me up in Him. I grew up in the Church of God and Assemblies of God. Growing up in church afforded me many wonderful opportunities to learn about ministry and serve my Lord, such as through worshiping Him in singing, teaching, dramas, playing piano, and leading worship.
EDUCATION
In 2003, I graduated from University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, Kentucky, with a bachelor’s degree in Computer Information Systems, a minor in Art, and a second minor in Communication Arts.

TODAY
Following our college graduation in 2003, Tim and I married and followed the Lord in ministry. Four years later we were blessed with our daughter and two years after that we were blessed with our son.
Today we are living in West Virginia, where Tim is ministering as associate pastor and youth pastor, teaching special education, and coaching. I am thrilled to be staying at home with our children, homeschooling, continuing graphic and web design work, and creating items for my Etsy shop.
Over a short period of time, God has certainly used us in many ways, and each season of our lives has provided us with the opportunity to depend on Him even more. He is truly our Rock.

Enjoyed reading your Profile page.
The addition of “The Real Me: Things I Love” was fun to read. It made me smile, and it helped me know and appreciate you even more.
Thanks for sharing. Knowing you makes me feel good.
