Favorite Gifts from Jesus

The desire and the ability to build up other people (in my own limited way).

Service Passion

My service passion is fixing, improving, or enhancing a situation. I gravitate to hospitality and love to make people feel seen and welcomed.

Family

My husband Carl and I met at Valparaiso University, were married as college students, and traveled the country before we had children.  We spent 16 years in Bellingham, WA before we relocated to Eau Claire in 1996. We have two children:

• Kira, lives with her family on a hobby farm in Colfax

• Joseph, has a disability (Apert Syndrome) and lives with us
