Hometown: Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

My Story: I grew up moving nine different times as a young child and youth. My parents always made sure that we had a church home and family wherever we moved. After a "rebellious" stage my first semester of college and not making time to find a church home or family, I learned that I was desperately missing my time with God and serving His people. As I pursued my teaching degree, I grew and really started my own personal journey with the Lord. I am still on that journey today and loving every minute as God's plan is unfolding right before my eyes!
