My life is based on walking with Jesus. I cannot imagine life without the grace of God, and I want to follow Him more closely and serve Him more faithfully. I believe that God has gifted me with a passion for love, laughter, and leadership, and I want to use those gifts to glorify Him and serve His church. I believe that being a Christ-centered follower means that I concern myself with the relationship with God while also serving others by using the God-given gifts. If elected to serve, my passion is to utilize the skills and experience I have in business operations to support the board in fulfilling the Synod’s mission objectives. “Pray therefore, that the Lord of harvest will send out laborers into His harvest” (Matt. 9:38).
