*I've been in full time, paid ministry positions for over 20 years. I served as a youth director for 9 years in Pittsford, NY, an associate pastor in Greensburg, PA, and a solo pastor in Gibsonia, PA. I started ministry as a youth group volunteer in college.
*I was born and raised in New England. My family is huge. (I have 3 brothers and 21 first cousins.) And yes, I'm a New England sports fan.
*My spouse (Geoff) and I have been married for nearly 10 years. We have a daughter who is almost 8 years old. We are a nerdy family (Star Wars, Star Trek, Disney, Marvel, LOTR, etc.) We're also really musical. There's always singing and dancing and music in our house. My spouse plays the violin and sings tenor; our daughter starts the day with singing almost as soon as she wakes up! She also tap dances.
*We are a "neuro-sparkly" family. Between neurodiversity and prematurity awareness (our daughter was 3 months early), our family has been involved with March of Dimes, as well as the Autism Caring Center. We strive to be a part of educating others and supporting other people's journeys (NICU, autism, ADHD, etc.)
*Some of the things I enjoy doing are photography, planning Disney trips that I may or may not take, my nails (I like using Color Street), and watching episodes of Friends, The Big Bang Theory, and Say Yes to the Dress (yes, really.) I also like to color (on my own and with my daughter.) We also love doing Lego sets together.
