I was born in Pottstown, PA in 1973. I lived in several states and traveled to many more throughout my journey. I have an ABJ degree from the University of Georgia and an MBA from the University of Colorado. After making a conscious decision to leave corporate America, I've spent the last 10 years working for non-profit organizations. I have an amazing daughter, a husband who loves me, and a strong group of friends. But, all of these life details pale in comparison to my God story!

The adventure began at age 13 when I encountered Christ and invited him to be my personal savior. Since that time, I've spent portions of my life in obedience and even larger portions of my life as a prodigal daughter. After years of listening to my own flesh, the world, and the lies of the enemy, I was completely broken and spilled out before the Lord. In my lowest of low moments, I cried out to the name above all names, "God, PLEASE … I want my life back!" In that moment, I heard God clearly respond that my life was not, in fact, my life – but rather His! Whoa! He hadn't forgotten me; he hadn't forsaken me; and he hadn't abandoned me. That was me! I had forgotten that my life was actually His – bought and paid for by his Son Jesus Christ!

Since that day in 2004, God has been lovingly repairing my brokenness and re-forming my life into something more beautiful, joyful, and purposeful for his Kingdom and glory. God is so good, and without fail his plans are so much better than my own! I am thrilled to serve Him and others each day through my current position of administration and ministry in AIM's Adult/Family Admissions Department. I still wrestle with God from time to time, but I know with everything that I am that resistance is truly futile. Praise God!
