"Teaching at CCC is a blessing to me for some of the same reasons I chose to attend the college as an undergraduate student. I like the family
atmosphere and how each individual is known by name not by number. As a student I appreciated the individual attention I received from faculty
and I now enjoy being able to give such individual attention to my students. As faculty, our goal is not only to impact our students' lives
academically, but also, more importantly, to have a spiritual influence in their lives. Teaching at CCC is truly a ministry in every sense of
the word, and I am so blessed to be able to be involved professionally teaching in a field I love, and be part of such a wonderful ministry at
the same time-it's the best of both worlds."
Interests: cooking, baking, drama, singing
