     My husband and I have been at Simpson University since 2002.  Prior to moving to Redding, California, we lived in Mansfield, Ohio where I was a Reading Specialist within the public school system.  I have served in a variety of roles in our few short years at Simpson, some of which include:  Women's Collegiate Volleyball Assistant Coach, Adjunct Faculty as Christian Ministry Practicum Instructor, Growth and Development Secretary, LIFE conference counselor, Conquest Staff Leader, summer mission team staff sponsor, and a member of the Healthy Relationships Task Force. 
    
     As the Career Services Coordinator, I have a strong desire to help students discover what God has designed them to do.  This process of discovering one's talents, interests, and career options can be a very complex one, requiring much prayer, planning, and discernment.

My professional interests include: 

• Establishing learning environments that challenge and motivate students
• Aiding others in their spiritual, emotional, and mental development
• Discovering ways to serve those who are in need (the poor, disadvantaged, etc.)
