Fast Facts
I am so grateful to be encouraged (expected, really) to integrate faith and learning. Many of my students will find themselves serving in the mission field of public education, so it is important for us to meet on a spiritual level.
Teachers and school/district leaders have a calling to service. To follow God’s will along this path is the most personally and spiritually rewarding work!
I served as a public school and district educator for almost 30 yers prior to beginning my tenure at AU. With experience as a teacher, principal, and chief instructional officer, I am able to blend the theoretical with the practical.
