Christian Jr/Sr High School

I love kids (they are a big deal to Jesus) and I love school.
I love educating people, both academically and spiritually. Theology is my first love, but History brings its own unique focus on God’s story through humanity, and I believe both are necessary to self-reflect.
My family and I were missionaries in Kenya for 14 years before coming to Christian Unified Schools. We lived and worked at a school for missionary kids called Rift Valley Academy. I am a parent of three amazing kids: I have one son who graduated from Christian in 2022, one son class of 2025, and a daughter class of 2029.
Christian Unified Schools is a place where Christ is preeminent. I wanted to work alongside a community that supported my love for teaching English and my passion for ministering to the hearts of students in order to build the kingdom of God.
It is my passion to develop and encourage students. God led us to Christian Unified several years ago. I love to inspire students with God's word through the art of cooking, baking, sewing, child development and interior design.
I teach because the Lord has called me to use my story and testimony to reach and hopefully inspire our youth to be a light in a world of darkness.
I believe that God causes all things to work together for good and His purpose (Romans 8:28). It is this belief that brings me to teach at Christian Unified. I am excited to share my faith, love of learning, and experience as a teacher to the students of Christian Junior and Senior High.
God has given us an amazing world to inhabit. I love studying the complicated yet harmonious ways in which it works, and I consider it a great privilege to be able to share this joy with others through teaching.
I want to impact our students' lives. I love how sports can teach us major life lessons.
I’m excited to be in a place where I can share the love of Christ daily, help students grow in their faith, and partner with families who value a biblical foundation for learning.
I love working at a school that emphasis the necessity and importance of Christ in all we do.
Christian Unified is a school that believes God's Word to be true, and that is taught in all the classrooms. I am so thankful to get to be a part of this school's mission to spread the good news of Jesus to the students here.
I have been married to my husband for over 20 years and have 3 wonderful kids who all attend at Christian. I love to sing in the church choir.
I served in the US Army from 1971-1974. I navigated a 40 foot sail boat from San Diego to Hawaii. I have climbed Mt. Whitney 10 times. I have lunch two times a year with a former CHS student who is a full professor at Rice University.
