I am a married woman with two grown children and four grandchildren. Church affiliation is in Mennonite Church USA. Spiritual Direction training from the FCJ Retreat Centre in Calgary, Alberta Canada - a two-year interdenominational program. I also have an MA in Peace Studies from Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary and a BA in Political Science from Valparaiso University. I have been a Spiritual Director since 2013.

I approach spiritual direction as holy listening, walking with or companioning a person to hear/see God at work in their life. This may include discernment of direction for the future as well as healing of the past. I am open to people from all faiths, cultures, and sexual orientations.
