5th year on staff

I’m the Elementary Fine Arts teacher at Madison Academy, a private Christian school in Huntsville, AL. I’m a member of the young adult ministry and praise team at Mayfair church of Christ. I can’t wait to be back at camp… It really is our miracle in the mountains!

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Personal Interests? Llamas, my cat, quoting Spongebob, music: Grouplove, Noah and the Whale, Bon Iver, Hozier

When I have an hour of free time, I like to… Read a murder mystery, crime, thriller novel… paint… talk… play Rummikub or Bananagrams

Best camp tradition? Does coffee and games on the dining hall porch before breakfast count?

Favorite Evening Program? All of them haha

Sing? Dance? Or both? Both while sweeping the pav lol

Item that I MUST bring to Camp with me…. My fan and mattress pad… I’m so extra.

Something you wouldn’t guess about me… I can be shy sometimes, haha

Last book I read… 1 Thessalonians lol

Three words to describe yourself: weird, silly, kind

Hidden talent? I can do a sick headstand

If my life could have a theme song, it would be…. Downtown by Macklemore

The best thing about camp will be… Seeing old friends, making new friends, loving on our girls, and delving deeper into our relationships with Christ.
