I am pleased to be the new Executive Director for Family Promise of North Idaho.  My husband, children and I served as hosts with Family Promise through the Bozeman church of Christ.  Our four and six year olds ask weekly with anticipation, “Is it a Family Promise night?”  We have thoroughly enjoyed being hosts.
 
I worked in Campus Ministry for the past 8 years where I helped college students grow into adult leaders. Before this I worked with developmentally disabled young adults helping them cope and develop life skills. Whether it is leading in Children’s Ministry, parenting my own children or counseling preteens, I have spent many hours nurturing and loving children. I am ready to put my experience and passion to work serving the needs of families. Family Promise gives me the opportunity to practice compassion and justice in this way. I invite the community to participate as well.

I received a BA from the University of Idaho and an MS is from Pepperdine. As an Idaho native, I am pleased to be back home. I have been married 13 years and have two creative kids. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with family, listening to Bluegrass and 80’s music (who doesn’t?), hiking, running and laughing as much as I can. And, I like drinking coffee with friends every chance I get.
