My Story

My journey with the Lord began when a friend’s invitation to a revival led me to the back pew of a country church, changing my life’s trajectory. After high school, I pursued a degree in education and never looked back. I’ve been married to my husband, Michael, since 2001, and we have two children, Michael and Kenna. Over my career, I’ve taught various grades and subjects and served in administration. We moved to San Antonio in 2021, where God led us to enroll our youngest at SACS. Witnessing His work at SACS, I joined the team within a year. At SACS, my faith and passion for education unite, allowing me to walk in my purpose.

SACS is an incredible school! My favorite thing about SACS is the commitment to and alignment with God’s Word and God’s ways. The love of Christ is central and overflows into each classroom and every hallway out of the hearts of the leadership, faculty, staff, and students.

Favorite Bible verse

Romans 15:13 – “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
