About Me

I am a Jesus follower, wife, missionary, mama, writer, and designer. I've been blogging for a really long time. In fact, I started my first blog when I was 14 (nearly 12 years ago). Nowadays, I use the outlet of blogging less for venting my frustrations and more for recording the things I see God doing.

I am a Jesus follower. A Christian. I am sold out. Nothing holds my heart but Him.

I am married to an incredible man of God. There was a time in my life that I thought I'd never marry. Boy was I wrong... and I wouldn't have it any other way. After five years of infertility, we finally had a little boy named Josiah.

I am a missionary in the inner-city of St. Louis, Missouri. I work and live in a little neighborhood called Hyde Park. It's broken, and desolate, and a war zone, and beautiful, and healing. I plan to raise my kids here.I hope they love it as much as I do.

I self-published my first novel in March of 2013. I've love to write since I was 11 years old-- so much that I decided to go to college for it. If you look back far enough in the archives of this blog, you'll find some of my old poetry and essays from when I was young and impressionable. If you'd like to check out my novel, you can buy a copy HERE.

After finishing a degree in Literature, I shifted gears and decided I wanted to be an interior designer. I got a certification for it in 2011, and I have used it in so many different crafts besides just interior decorating. I sew, I craft, I draw, and I just really love design.

This is me in a nutshell. I hope you are touched by what I write here. Please don't hesitate to look around and let me know what you think!

“Ima” (The Prodigal’s Mother)

 Birth is the only jubilant end To one life being shared with another. Not so joyous is the letting go that comes after. No one told me what...
