I was born and raised in Kentucky and attended Eastern Kentucky University where I received my bachelors degree in Athletic Training. I worked as a High School Certified Athletic Trainer for 2 years, after which I decided to go back to school for a Graduate degree which led me to attend the University of Hawaii at Manoa for a Master’s in Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Science. While attending UH Manoa I found One Love Ministries and began serving in children’s ministry teaching Preschool and Older Elementary.

Upon graduating from UH Manoa in 2016, God called me away from Athletic Training to join the staff at One Love as the Children’s Ministry Assistant. In 2020, I started overseeing the Children’s Ministry at our Windward Campus where I continued to grow in leading our volunteers and families and then became the Children’s Ministry Director in 2025. I truly love working with the kids and seeing their faith grow. My heart is for every child who comes to One Love to experience Jesus, through our bible teaching and love that is poured into them. My hope is to equip all families to instill a biblical worldview into their children and come along side parents in doing so!
