Hi! I'm an ordinary person with no special calling or credentials to set me apart as an expert on the teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But I am a devout student of the scriptures and the teachings of the living prophets, and I love to share what I know--in a book, in a crowd, one-on-one, or however the Holy Spirit directs. 

I joined the church while in college, and after graduation, I served as a full-time missionary in Guatemala. I married my sweetheart in the Portland, Oregon temple, and we have three children, two grown and one in preschool. My husband works for Seminaries & Institutes, and I've had many callings over the years, most of which involved teaching. My favorites have been as a released-time seminary teacher, the choir director, and (now) as the chorister in Primary. 

My books are short but packed with easy-to-digest spiritual nutrients. The goal is always to make the principles and doctrines of the scriptures more approachable, so that readers come away empowered with practical knowledge and skills as well as an abiding confidence that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are on their side, and they can do this thing called keeping on the covenant path!
