I am an Elder in Full Connection from the Florida Conference, returning after serving an interim appointment in the Indiana Conference.  I have served the people of Main Street United Methodist in Boonville, Indiana, just outside of Evansville, for a year (2024-2025).

I am a graduate of Asbury Theological Seminary's Florida campus.  I am originally from Kentucky, but lived in Florida from 2015-2024.  During that time, I served on staff at Hyde Park United Methodist (2015-2020), Pastor at United Methodist Temple in Lakeland (2020-2021) and Associate Pastor at First UMC Lakeland (2021-2024).

I am married to Travis, who has returned to the University of South Florida as an academic advisor.  He had previously been with them for almost 6 years (2018-2024).  We met in college and married in 2014.  We have one son, Wyatt, who is 5 years old and will be entering kindergarten this fall.  We also have two dogs.

I am passionate about partnering with churches and their people so they can follow God's call to serve their communities.  I am ecstatic to see how Seminole Heights is already so connected with its community, and look forward to continuing those ministries.  I love preaching and have experience supporting church administration and supervising staff.  In my most recent interim pastorate, I shepherded a church through a budget deficit toward greater financial stability, without sacrificing mission and ministry.

For fun, I love baking, running, long walks with my family, yoga and theme parks.  I also love spending time with my family and friends.  We are very excited to join you soon and call the Seminole Heights neighborhood our home!
