I had the good fortune to be raised in a Christian home. My love for the piano started when I was five and began to take lessons. My position at the church is on keyboard for our contemporary service and piano (and sometimes organ) for our traditional service. Of course, other jobs come with the position - such as playing for soloists, weddings, and funerals. I am also active in our hand bell ministry. All this keeps me very busy - but this is only a part-time job!

I graduated from Carson-Newman College with a degree in accounting and work in my family’s business. Outside of music, I enjoy time spent with my family, cross-stitching, and tatting.

I have always stressed to my children the importance of God in their lives. It is very important to be actively involved in church where we grow in our faith. I consider the members of my church family an extended family. The people in our church make it the friendliest church in town. We are blessed with both a wonderful minister, assistant ministers, and staff.

I invite you to attend church with us where you can feel the love of God working through His people.
