Where are you from originally?
I’m originally from Muncie.

Where do you live now?
I currently live in Noblesville. I love living close to Indianapolis, but far enough away to avoid traffic headaches.

What led you to Noblesville First?
I must say that Pastor Nicole is what brought me to Noblesville First. When I first applied for my position, I watched several of her sermons. Her sermons speak of the love and acceptance Christ has for everyone.

What are you looking forward to most about the job?
One of the things I look forward to in my position is meeting everyone who contributes to the heart of Noblesville First’s ministries and missions.

Tell us about the various parts of your job.
As an executive assistant at Noblesville First, I hope to help the clergy and staff foster growth and service for all in our community.

Tell us about your other work experience prior to Noblesville First.
I’ve worn many hats in my career. I’ve taught water aerobics, worked in maintenance and administration at Wishard (Eskanazi) Hospital. I loved working at the NCAA and going to the basketball tournaments. My favorite job was working at St. Christopher’s Episcopal church in Carmel. I’m hoping Noblesville First will be my new favorite job!

What else do you think the congregation might enjoy learning about you?
I am an out-going person who hates to talk in front of crowds. I’d rather sing in front of 500 people than speak in front of 10! And don’t tell anyone, but I have a secret addiction to Diet Mountain Dew.
