I grew up in Cutlerville and attended Legacy Christian School (although back then it was Cutlerville Christian). I graduated from South Christian in 1996 and from Hope College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work in 2000. I received my Master’s Degree in Social Work from Grand Valley State University. For much of my career, I worked in medical social work at Spectrum Health and also have experience in providing outpatient therapy. I am excited to be back at South Christian and to provide social work services to students here. My husband, Mark, and I have three children- Jenna, Levi, and Mitchell. We live in the Byron Center area and attend Friendship CRC.
