Assistant Chaplin

    I'm a Florida native, born in the Tampa Bay area. I first experienced God’s presence at the age of nine and then encountered the Holy Spirit in my mid-twenties. However, it wasn’t until the early 1980s that Jesus Christ became my real companion and confidant. I earned my Bachelor of Arts from the University of South Florida in 1975 and then went on to complete my Masters of Education years later. As a young woman fresh out of college and starting my teaching career, I realized just how much I needed the Lord. I yearned to make a difference in my students' lives but desperately needed wisdom. It was at that point that I reached out to the Lord for His guidance, and He answered. I learned how much of an impact my Christian walk played in the classroom. I began to see my students, parents, and faculty in a positive light. They too needed encouragement, grace, and the love of God.

   

    In addition to education, I've always held a passion for Christian fellowship and using my vocal talents to perform as a vessel of the Lord. I have served in many choirs and multiple ministries for decades and have had the opportunity to fulfill the role of principal for a Christian private school. I have since retired after 38 years of educating, mentoring, and leadership coaching in the Tampa Bay community. Now, I seek to help spread the good news of the Kingdom through fervent prayer, which gives me direction and strength.
