"Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts,as in your ignorance; but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

1 Peter 1:13-16 (New King James Version)


Welcome to my website! As an educator in my 16th year of teaching, I grew up in the Town of Tonawanda, attended Kenmore East Senior High School eventually obtaining my Master degree in Education from the State University College of New York at Buffalo.

I accepted Jesus as my Saviour in September of my junior year at Buffalo State College (SUCB). My best friend from high school, Pam, witnessed to me right after we graduated from high school and through her prayer and counsel, I admitted my sins, asked for Jesus' forgiveness and asked Jesus to come into my heart as Lord and Saviour. I became active in Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC), first being discipled in a Bible Study, eventually teaching my own Bible study. Because I felt led in working with high school-aged students, I was the first at SUCB CCC to teach a high school Bible study and I was hooked. One of the CCC leaders told me of a conference coming up that involved  both CCC and Youth For Christ (YFC) and what I originally thought we would only take 14 students, we ended up taking 50 students and their youth leaders to a conference in Washington, DC. From that event, we initiated a Youth For Christ ministry in western New York, which I served in for three years.

Immediately after leaving the ministry, I worked in the business field for several years. After I married John, he encouraged me to quit my job and return to school to obtain my teaching certificate in Business Education.

I knew I wanted to serve the Lord, so as I continued my education, I substituted at Covenant Academy in the Town of Tonawanda, along with a couple public school districts. After graduation from Daemen College with my teaching certificate in hand, I began my career at Covenant Academy, teaching basic computer and word processing skills in the computer lab. I developed a scope and sequence for each grade level through researching the NYS Learning Standards and the National Education Technology Standards (NETS).

I earned my second teaching certificate and then graduated with my Master's degree in Educational Technology from SUCB. My heart continues to desire full time ministry in the area of teaching. I enjoy students of all ages and feel blessed that the Lord has continued to grant me His grace to do what I love to do! I am in constant awe of God's gifts to me as I continue to seek His direction for my life.
