I grew up just up the hill in Placerville, where I live now with my husband, Reed, and our three kids - Ben (8), Owen (6), and Caleb (4). I was raised in a warm, inclusive, and welcoming UMC/PC(USA) congregation that nurtured my love of theological study, my questioning mind, and my creative spirit. I graduated from United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities with a Master of Divinity in Presbyterian Studies. Upon commencement, I received awards for both preaching and for integrating my MDiv work into parish ministry.
