I'm a graduate of Zion Bible College, Barrington, RI.  I continued my studies at Southeastern University in Lakeland, FL.

Born in Florida, raised in Ohio; and truly a Buckeye Fan.  I have some wonderful family memories--great times with my cousins since most of us lived nearby.  As a child I had strong desires and daydreams to touch the lives of children around the world. 

These ideas were birthed in my heart and mind through reading some great stories, "Christy", "Gladys ALyward", and hearing testimonies of missionaries that came to our church on a regular basis, Warren First Assembly of God.  My Pastor & his wife, Oliver & Ginny Dalaba were a strong influence in my life simply by being personal, loving and caring people who loved Jesus. 

After graduation from Zion I headed to Canada and served with the Canadian Sunday School Mission Organization as full time missionary in the province of Quebec.   There I served as the Christian Education Director and Summer Camp Program Director. 

I've been blessed in meeting and serving with wonderful people in my life that have impacted and challenged me to live for the Lord standing strong in Biblical Principles.

I've served the Lord in many capcities, out of heart to serve when asked:  Sunday School Teacher,Pre-school teacher & Director,  Missionettes Sponsor, Sectional Leader, JBQ Coach, Secretary, Church Business Administrator, Part-Time Secretary, Youth Sponsor, Youth Pastor, Children's Pastor, Evangelist, Junior Bible Quiz Coach, District Camp Director, Cordinator for Networking for children's ministers, Conference & Motivational Speaker and Organizer, Women's Ministries Leader and now a missionary. 

I've been involved in children's ministries since the age of 13 and in professional ministry for over 27 years.  It has and is a priviledge and blessing as well as a constant challenge to grow as a person.
