This is my third year as a Teacher’s Aide at ACA. I started in the 3rd grade last year and have been blessed to follow these amazing students to the 4th grade and continue to build relationships with them, the teachers, and the staff. Seeing how God is incorporated into everything at ACA has been a real joy! I have a Masters degree in Counseling from Western Seminary in Portland and got my bachelor’s degree from Northwestern College in St. Paul, MN. I have a daughter who graduated last year, 2 girls in high school, a boy in 6th grade, and a son who lives in Utah (and a sweet pit mix Cali, and two cats Maizie and Tux). Life is fun and challenging these days! I love trying new recipes when I have time to cook, nature/walks, reading, and coffee!
