About Me

We have 3 children, Bryce, Abel, and Phoebe. Bryce is 18 and has graduated from homeschool highschool. He has SB at T-8, with hydrocephalous, decompressed Chiari II, NVLD, and a severe speech disfluency. Bryce is a great guy - one of the most content people I've ever known. He keeps busy around the house with his drums, music, and computer. He is an artist at Studio Sfumato in Medford, and he loves Joni and Friends.


My husband Brent is the chairman of the Joni and Friends Southern Oregon Chapter, ministering to individuals and families affected by disability, and encouraging churches to begin and sustain disability ministries. I am a "major contributing writer" for the brand new book Special Needs Smart Pages published by Gospel Light. I also host a support group for mothers who homeschool their children with special needs.
