She lives on a small acreage outside of Pella with her husband Jesse, and their three children, Braydon (7), Annika (6) and Jace (1). Graduating from Central College in ’99, she has been a 5th & 2nd grade classroom teacher, held several coaching positions ranging from kindergarten soccer to junior varsity basketball, ran an in-home Christian daycare and is in her 5th year of employment at Third Church where she is currently the director of children’s ministry.
