While not completely digital or synchronized, my life is a mash-up of family, school, ministry, freelance writing and speaking, laundry, and the family dog. 

I’ve been a youth and young adult volunteer since big hair was in. In 2010 I crash-landed into full-time staff at Christ’s Place in Lincoln, Nebraska, where I accepted the offer to launch Christ’s Place Leadership College for emerging adults as well as help lead & develop small group leaders. 

In my elusive free time, I still write and speak about volunteering, communication (one on one and small groups), teenagers, leadership, and boundaries. I volunteer at The Edge, our middle school ministry. I’m as easily bored as our dog, so presentations are experiential, not lecture-based. Talks can be tailored for public school, marketplace, and faith-based audiences.

I’ve written a few children’s stories, for which I hope to find publishing homes. 

I’m still my husband’s girlfriend after 24 married years. We live and laugh with one of our teenagers in Nebraska and the other in college out of state.
