I have experience and training in teaching and research, as well as clinical training and experience serving clients with various mental health issues and developmental disabilities in both the public and private setting. I have been an adjunct professor at Baldwin Wallace College, Lakeland Community College, and Indiana Wesleyan University, teaching college and graduate level courses. I have over 30 years of experience with public speaking and 25 years of experience leading and teaching Bible studies and served as Women’s Ministries Director. I am passionate teaching and inspiring others to live lives full of hope, joy and truth. To learn more about my public speaking, please see the tab “Public Speaking” under “Services”.


I have a personal, saving relationship with Jesus Christ. I have been married to my husband for over 20 years and we have two children. I love spending time with my family and making life-long memories. It is my privilege to serve my community using my training and education and life experience to help others find hope. I look forward to discussing with you how my professional services may serve you.
