I moved to Christiansburg, VA in 2019 after living in California for 20 years. Christiansburg reminds me of the Oregon that I grew up in and I cherish God’s faithfulness in bringing me here. I have been a licensed pastor in the Foursquare Church since 2011. I am passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves, especially in transition and change. That transition could be the next step in life or it could the next step of healing, either way, I enjoy this work. I have spent most of the last 20 years working with the college age and young professional and I find great joy in walking alongside these blossoming adults as they begin the process of living life in these new seasons. I teach at Life Pacific University Virginia to help bring a biblical understanding of mental health, marriage, and development to the classroom. I enjoy traveling and experiencing new cultures. I look forward to working with you.
