How did you connect to St. Marcus?

Initially, I was a parent to an 8th grader, a 4th grader and a K4 student at St. Marcus School. I took a field trip to Northwestern College with the 8th grade class and started building relationships with the students and dishing out some "tough love". On the trip back home, the school Principal and I bonded and 13 years later I find myself still here serving.

What do you love about what you do?

I love building relationships with the parents of the children we serve.

If you had a Bible passage/quote for your life and ministry what would it be?

"It takes a Village.” This saying rings true as we work with a village of parents and the community 24/7.

I have been married for 14 years! I have 3 girls in their twenties and I am a grandma to 2 beautiful granddaughters that both attend St. Marcus (K4 in 2015).
