As a former young mother myself, I am deeply honored to serve as the Parents Coordinator at Youth 71:Five Ministries. This work is profoundly meaningful to me, as it reflects a continuum of care for young women who have chosen life, just as I once did, often in seasons where that choice can feel challenging. Walking alongside these mothers as they build strong, hope-filled futures is both a privilege and a calling.
Over the past six years, I have grown as a nonprofit leader with a passion for cultivating authentic relationships, strengthening communities, and creating spaces where individuals feel supported, empowered, and seen. I believe deeply in the power of connection, standing arm in arm with one another, guided by faith, to overcome challenges and celebrate growth together.

 

I live in Medford with my husband, the owner of Wright Brothers Music Lessons, and our son, Shiloh, a lively and curious young boy with a deep love for learning. Our home is full of life, including our small “city farm” of chickens, ducks, a bunny, a cat, and my beloved dog, Penny Lane. Nature is where I feel most grounded and connected, I find God’s presence most clearly with my feet in the dirt, surrounded by trees and open sky up above.
