I grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, and still deeply love my Midwest roots—especially Cincinnati Chili and Graeter's ice cream! I attended Brigham Young University, majoring in Communications with an emphasis in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in German. A study abroad and a mission in Austria deepened my love for travel and music—the hills really are alive in Salzburg!

I met my best friend, Josh, in 2010, married him a year later in 2011, and after a few moves across the country, we finally landed in Texas. We are settled forever in Keller, where my Texas-native husband and I love raising our four kids: Gretta, Gwen, May, and Miles! All three of my girls have gone through Singers Company, and I've seen firsthand how the magic of the program helps them gain confidence, shine, and completely come out of their shells.

As a family, we love being active, heading out to the soccer fields, playing board games, and going on adventures. On weekends, my personal favorite is family karaoke night with candy! Outside of that, I'm often in the local schools as a substitute teacher, and I enjoy crafting, listening to audiobooks, running, and dabbling in newer hobbies like pickleball and mahjong. I also have way too many houseplants and somehow can't seem to stop buying more whenever I'm out shopping!

Music and theater have been lifelong passions of mine; I've been involved in choir, plays, and musicals all the way from elementary school through college. From studying communications to teaching our church's children's music program and directing student shows, I love passing that passion on. (Fair warning: I'm totally the one who cries at parades and kids' performances watching how much heart they put in.)
