Family Info: I have been married to the most wonderful man, Mike, and we have three children -Victor, Jordan and Emilie.
What is the best part about my role here at TRCC: I get to work with so many amazing people! I love to be around them because all they want to do is serve our Lord. From the staff to the servants, all of whom inspire me through their testimonies and their spiritual walk to be the person that I know Christ wants me to be.
When I was saved: I accepted Jesus at 19 while attending a retreat for teenagers. However, not until after the birth of our first child, did I truly begin to understand what a real relationship with Christ was.
One of the things I find most fascinating: I find nature to be absolutely fascinating! When people look at the mountains, the brightest yellow flowers, the 200 shades of green in the trees, the rivers and streams – how can you not see God in these miraculous creations?
My favorite place on earth: The Great Smoky Mountains.
