I settled in Holland after graduating from Hope College in 1990 with a B.A. in business and English. Soon after graduating I met my husband, Raymond. We have two sons, Mason and Reed. Mason graduated from Hope in 2018 and is a youth pastor in Indiana. Reed is currently attending Hope, planning to study political science. We attend Central Wesleyan Church.

Our family enjoys attending U of M football games and we are all avid sports fans. Prior to joining Holland Christian in the fall of 2019, I worked for 13 years as the accounting supervisor of Holland Public Schools. I feel blessed with this new opportunity to work with the staff, parents, and students of Holland Christian. What a privilege to work with the entire Holland Christian community to further the Kingdom of Christ!
