I am so blessed to be a part of the staff here at Praise Community Church. I come from a large, very close-knit, family with children of all ages. Most of my childhood included attending church every Sunday. My elementary to middle school years I attended a private Christian school, and as soon as I was old enough, I volunteered in my church as a junior leader. For 7 years I helped teach children Bible lessons and assist the teacher in any way I could. I was then promoted to Sunday School Teacher where I continued for an additional 3 years. I graduated from Azusa Pacific University with a degree in Theatre Arts and Theology in May 2020. In my time at APU my love for the Lord grew and I knew I wanted to pursue a career where I could teach others about the love of Christ I have come to know. I have always loved children, and teaching the word of God, so I am incredibly grateful to have this opportunity as the Children’s Ministry Director where I can combine my passions.

My Favorite Bible Verse: Joshua 1:5 “You’ve got someone standing beside you that’s stronger than the one standing against you.”
