I was born and raised in Georgia. I attended the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!) and graduated with a degree in Social Studies Education. While at UGA, through a campus ministry called Campus Outreach, the Lord opened my eyes to the beauty of the gospel. I’m forever grateful for those years the Lord used to show me himself anew. I met my husband, Jeff (the youth guy!), while at Georgia and we got married right after I graduated. After Jeff finished college, we decided to move to Birmingham, a big reason being my parents moved back here after being away for almost 30 years. In the years after I graduated, I had a few jobs in different schools and at a nonprofit. After teaching for a year and realizing it was definitely not for me, the Lord beautifully orchestrated that I would fill the Children’s Ministry Director position. I’m so thankful to be able to pour into the children and families at Christ Church. It is an honor and I pray the Lord would use this ministry to shine the light of the gospel into little hearts and families.
