“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

After graduating from Lakes High School in Tacoma WA, I attended Pacific Lutheran University where I earned a BA in Business Administration with a concentration in Management Information Systems and minors in Computer Science and English Writing.  Upon graduation, I began to work for Safeco Insurance Company in their Information Technology Department as a computer programmer.  During my time at Safeco, I worked on many different projects and held many different titles with IT.  It was also during this time I earned my MBA from the University of Washington.

In 2015, I began teaching at LCHS.  I have taught a variety of business and computer science courses.  In 2019, I became the CTE Director and continually work to grow courses and opportunities for students to gain the knowledge and skills necessary for life after high school.

High school is such an exciting time for students.  My prayer for them is that through their time at LCHS they can discover God’s calling on their life and that they can rest in the peace that God has a plan for them.

My husband, Lane, and I have four children who attend/attended Lynden Christian and we belong to First Christian Reformed Church.
