I was raised in a Christian home with loving supportive parents and
3 pretty awesome sisters.  Life
revolved around ch
urch, family, school, sports, and friends. Growing up in m
y
family was always exciting, fun, and intense. There was alway
s lots of love,
lots of competition, and plenty of sisterly fights!

I grew up and currently live in Eugene, Oregon, a place I happen
to be very fond of, despite all the rain
. It is home to the University of
Oregon Ducks, some cool hippies, Nike, countless bike riders & lots of
green trees!  My brief absence from
the great northwest lasted only during my college years, when I spent 4 years
in the southwestern desert playing softball and going to school.
My oldest sister  & i in Eugene.
Since college, Christ has made me realize that it’s not all about
me (ha & it never really was). Thankfully this led to some wonderful
changes in my life including my attitude, goals, dreams, and desires.
This fall, I am student teaching 5th
grade to finish up my masters program in early childhood development and
elementary education and am looking forward to graduating in December.
 
Last random
things:
-I love time spent with good
company in deep and real conversation.
-Our family dog Cinnamon is one of my best buds. She’s
such a loyal companion.
-I am just now learning to fully accept that God
truly loves me and is glad to call me His daughter.
–I desperately want to know God more. He’s all that
matters! Why is that so easy to forget?
