I am from a small town near Kearney, so I have been in the area all my life. My husband, Derek, and I met while attending college at UNK and were married at First Lutheran in 2009. I have a bachelor’s degree in Family Studies with a minor in Social Work and have always enjoyed working with people. I have served as a Sunday School teacher and Sunday School coordinator, organized VBS registration, served with Feeding the Flock and have taught Confirmation small group classes. We have two children and a silly mini-labradoodle named Bruce. We enjoy spending time outside and following the kids’ various activities to keep us busy!
